Corporate hog roast in Peel Common, carved to order
A carving station gives a client event a sense of occasion. With china and sides, it becomes a proper meal. For client and customer events and open days and family days, we can cook spit-roast lamb, salads and rotisserie chicken and more.
At country workplaces around Peel Common, we can cook in the yard. Tell us about access. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your staff.
What happens on the day
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. Daytime open days in Peel Common are rarely affected by light, but in December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so late events need lighting.

- We serve quickly within your break.
- Afterwards we clear up and go.

A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Looking after everyone
Some staff will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
Name someone in facilities or reception for the day, so we can find you quickly.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we will fit in.
Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Before you choose a spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- Sign-off for outside caterers
- Someone to meet us at reception
- Access through the site gates
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
