How the day works
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. In St Ann's Green, summer evenings stay light until about 9:15pm, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. In late September, the light goes at about 7:00pm.

Corporate hog roast in St Ann's Green, slow-roasted on site

Catered or do it yourself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a formal plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and typically better value. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What you get with us
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Carved by our chef in front of your staff

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some staff won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Add a dietary question to the sign-up
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
