About our corporate hog roast in Newfound
Sites usually have rules for outside caterers: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Tell us what your facilities team needs. We serve salads, crackling and spit-roast lamb, and we’re regularly asked to cater customer days and team treats.
Near Newfound, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. Our chef carves in front of your staff, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
