A hog roast near Sanderstead
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
How our corporate hog roast works in Sanderstead
Long-service awards, retirements and site openings in Sanderstead all suit a hog roast, as a simple way to say thank you. We’re often asked to cater long-service celebrations and end-of-project celebrations, with halloumi skewers, spit-roast lamb and coleslaw.
For offices in and around Sanderstead, the roaster typically goes in a car park, yard or courtyard, if the building allows gas cooking. Facilities teams usually need to approve gas equipment and access. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

About the food
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, which keeps it hot and moist.
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
The process
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Lunchtime bookings in Sanderstead are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
