A hog roast or other catering?
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast is easier to organise and keeps people together. 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.

The process
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your staff, with crackling for everyone who wants it. For a staff lunch in Hillstreet, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check site access and send a price.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
- Afterwards we clear up and go.
How to prepare

Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Where the roaster can go in Hillstreet
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard

Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food

Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
