Corporate hog roast in Longfield, slow-roasted on site
Open days and family fun days need food that copes with a crowd. One roast feeds a crowd, with our staff serving and clearing. Whether it’s client and customer events and staff summer days, we will put together a menu of crackling, salads and rotisserie chicken for your staff.
At country workplaces around Longfield, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, for the alternatives
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, keeping the queue moving.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
