Corporate hog roast in Newdigate
DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Corporate hog roast in Newdigate, slow-roasted on site
Sites typically have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Pass on your site’s requirements. Whether it is site openings and customer days, we will put together a menu of coleslaw, salads and hog roast rolls and more.
Near Newdigate, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. Timings are planned around your staff event, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Daytime open days in Newdigate are rarely affected by light, though in winter it is dark by about 3:55pm, so late events need lighting.
