Corporate hog roast in Quidhampton
The process
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. After-work summer events in Quidhampton have light until about 9:25pm at midsummer and 8:55pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. In late September, the light goes at about 7:10pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check site access and send a price.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
- We tidy up and leave the site clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Gather dietary requirements early

Corporate hog roast in Quidhampton, carved to order
Whether it is twenty people or a whole site, the roast is sized to fit. Tell us the numbers and the serving window for a quote. We’re often asked to cater staff thank-you lunches and customer days, with spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and crackling.
Near Quidhampton, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, and the roast cooks through the morning.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, nobody from the team is stuck cooking. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why us?
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Choices for people who do not eat pork

Other occasions in Quidhampton
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What affects the price in Quidhampton
We do not use a fixed price list, because every staff event is different. The main factors are:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Access to the cooking area
- Plates or china
- The number of people
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
