How our corporate hog roast works in Speedwell
A summer party for staff in Speedwell does not have to mean a restaurant booking. A hog roast in the car park or grounds keeps everyone together. We serve rotisserie chicken, spit-roast lamb and salads, and we are regularly asked to cater launch days and site open days.
For farms and rural sites near Speedwell, a hog roast brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.

A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- Clearance from the building and parked cars
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a staff barbecue, everyone gets to join in. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
Name someone in facilities or reception for the day.
China crockery is available for client events.
Speedwell questions
Is Speedwell too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Speedwell from London?
About 40 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you send documents for facilities?
Each site is different: pass on your list and we’ll respond.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What about staff who do not eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Where on site can you cook?
Most car parks and yards are fine, given level ground and clearance.
Can it be more formal?
With china and sides, it works well for clients.
How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. Lunchtime bookings in Speedwell are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
- You send us the site address, date, numbers and serving window.
- We check site access and send a price.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- We serve quickly within your break.
