Corporate hog roast for Pixham
How our corporate hog roast works in Pixham
A summer party for staff in Pixham does not have to mean a restaurant booking. Keep everyone on site with a hog roast. We serve hog roast rolls, crackling and salads, and typical bookings are for thank-you lunches and milestone celebrations.
Near Pixham, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Someone to meet us at reception
- Clearance from the building and parked cars
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, carved to order at the serving station.
Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
Afterwards we tidy up, and leave the site clean.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
