Slow-roasted pork in Hill Head
Corporate hog roast in Hill Head, slow-roasted on site

Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
We serve on time, so people get back to work on time.
Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.
Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.

Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.

What affects the price in Hill Head
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- How long the roast and service take
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The number of people
- Crockery choices
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
