Slow-roasted pork in Little London
Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Little London
Staff days in Little London work well with a hog roast: quick to serve, easy to eat standing up and enjoyed by most people. Chicken, lamb and vegetarian options cover everyone else. Popular choices include crackling, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers, and we’re often booked for team days and away days and retirements and long-service awards.
Near Little London, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Planners, venues and businesses
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Share the allergen information with the team
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, and the roast cooks through the morning.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
A hog roast or other catering?

The process
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Open days in Little London generally finish in daylight, though in winter it is dark by about 4:00pm, so late events need lighting.

- You get a check on the date and the site, and a quote.
- We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
- Afterwards we clear up and go.
How to prepare
