How our corporate hog roast works in Mayford
Long-service awards, retirements and site openings in Mayford all suit a hog roast, as a thank-you to the team. We serve crackling, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls, and we are often booked for site open days and site openings.
Near Mayford, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.
How the day works
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. If your staff event in Mayford runs into the evening, check the light: sunset ranges from about 9:20pm in June to 3:55pm in December.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- You get a check on the date and the site, and a quote.
- We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- We pack away and leave the site as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Name a contact for the day

What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Site access
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Menu choices and extras
- Distance from us
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What we need to know
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Dietary requirements
- Roughly how many people
- The address or postcode
- Rules from the venue or landowner
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the staff event is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
The menu, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.

FAQs for Mayford
Is Mayford close to London?
About 25 miles from central London.
What’s the nearest station to Mayford?
The closest is Worplesdon station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Each site is different: pass on your list and we will respond.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
Yes. Add china, sides and a second roast for a more formal feel.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
We will sign in and follow site rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.
Add sides for a bigger lunch.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Event organisers frequently 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.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a formal plated lunch, it’s less formal and normally costs less. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What you get with us
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Our staff serve and clear
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
