Slow-roasted pork in Shilton
Corporate hog roast in Shilton, carved to order
Staff days in Shilton work well with a hog roast: quick to serve, easy to eat standing up and enjoyed by most people. There are choices for people who do not eat pork. For project wrap-ups and client hospitality, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, rotisserie chicken and salads.
For farms and rural sites near Shilton, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. The carving happens right in front of your staff, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
