Hook Green questions
What’s the nearest station to Hook Green?

How does payment work for businesses?

What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
Can you work around our timings?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will fit around changes.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
Corporate hog roast in Hook Green, carved to order

At country workplaces around Hook Green, a hog roast brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.
Working with your venue
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
We’ll sign in and follow site rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.
If it’s a themed open day, tell us.

Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Why choose a hog roast in Hook Green?
Next to a plated lunch, it’s less formal and normally costs less. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

How the day works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. Lunchtime bookings in Hook Green are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
