How our corporate hog roast works in Old Dean
A carving station gives a client event a sense of occasion. With china and sides, it becomes a proper meal. On the menu are salads, spit-roast lamb and halloumi skewers, and we’re often booked for team days and away days and new premises openings.
Around Old Dean, teams work at farms, workshops and units. A hog roast suits all of them. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before you book.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Compared with a formal plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and normally better value. Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
