How our corporate hog roast works in Ovingdean
A corporate hog roast feeds a team without anyone leaving site. We set up in a car park, yard or courtyard in Ovingdean, roast through the morning and carve at the time you set. For customer days and end-of-project celebrations, we can cook hog roast rolls, crackling and salads.
At country workplaces around Ovingdean, we can cook in the yard. Tell us about access. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, slowly, over several hours.
