Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast is easier to organise and keeps people together. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What you get with us

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some staff will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the site as we found it.

- A named contact for the day
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
