Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Lunsford
For a staff day in Lunsford, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser: rolls are fast to serve and easy to eat. Chicken, lamb and vegetarian options cover everyone else. Whether it’s summer staff parties and client hospitality, we will put together a menu of salads, hog roast rolls and crackling.

Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Next to street-food vans, a hog roast feeds plenty of people quickly from one roast. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why us?
- Carved to order by a chef
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- All the equipment comes with us

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:

On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, then roast through the morning.

Full catering or machine hire?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
How it works
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. Open days in Lunsford normally finish in daylight, but in December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so late events need lighting.
- Send us the site, date, numbers and break time.
- We check access and gas rules and quote.
- We set up early and roast through the morning.
- We serve within your break.
- We pack away and go.
Before we arrive
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Send final numbers in good time
How to get a price
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: send us your details through our quote form.

What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Level hardstanding or lawn
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
