Slow-roasted pork in Palm Bay
Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Corporate hog roast in Palm Bay, carved to order
Open days and family fun days need food that copes with a crowd. One roast feeds a crowd, and our team serves and clears. We serve halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and coleslaw, and we’re regularly asked to cater retirement do’s and team days and away days.
Near Palm Bay, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Level hardstanding or lawn
- Space away from buildings, vehicles and trees
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains

Step by step
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your staff, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Daytime open days in Palm Bay are rarely affected by light, but in December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so late events need lighting.
