Slow-roasted pork in Murrell Green
Corporate hog roast in Murrell Green, slow-roasted on site
A corporate hog roast feeds a team without anyone leaving site. We set up in a car park, yard or courtyard in Murrell Green, roast through the morning and carve at the time you set. We are frequently asked to cater launch days and team days and away days, serving halloumi skewers, coleslaw and hog roast rolls.
Rural businesses around Murrell Green can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?

FAQs for Murrell Green
Is Murrell Green too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Which station is closest to Murrell Green?
The closest is Winchfield station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Where on site can you cook?
Most car parks and yards are fine, given level ground and clearance.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

What affects the price in Murrell Green
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Access to the cooking area
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The date and time of year
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Getting an accurate quote
Here’s what we will ask:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Any dietary needs or allergies
