About our corporate hog roast in Hill Brow
A corporate hog roast feeds a team without anyone leaving site. We roast on site in Hill Brow through the morning and serve at your lunch break. Typical bookings include family fun days and staff summer days, serving rotisserie chicken, spit-roast lamb and salads.
Near Hill Brow, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. The carving happens right in front of your staff, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What else we do in Hill Brow
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Questions from Hill Brow
How far is Hill Brow from London?
Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Hill Brow too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
Can you work to our lunch time?
Give us your break time and numbers and we will make it work.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
How we price a hog roast for your team
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

- Which meats and sides you choose
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
