How our corporate hog roast works in Selling
At an open day, you need food that serves plenty of people quickly. A hog roast does exactly that, and our team serves and clears. On the menu are salads, rotisserie chicken and crackling, and typical bookings are for site openings and staff thank-you lunches.
Rural businesses around Selling can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Put the allergen list where people can see it

At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, so people get back to work on time.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
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.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Access through the site gates
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
