Corporate hog roast for Rushenden
Corporate hog roast in Rushenden, carved to order
A carving station gives a client event a sense of occasion. With china and sides, it becomes a proper meal. Whether it’s staff summer days and long-service celebrations, we will put together a menu of salads, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers.
Rural businesses around Rushenden can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a hog roast a real treat. The hog is roasted on site at your staff event, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some staff won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Add a dietary question to the sign-up
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, so people get back to work on time.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a restaurant outing, a hog roast is easier to organise and keeps people together. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
