Corporate hog roast for your staff event in St Peter's
In St Peter's, we cater retirements, openings and long-service celebrations, as a thank-you to the team. We serve crackling, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater staff thank-you lunches and client and customer events.
Work events near St Peter's might be at a farm business, a workshop or an industrial unit. It works at any of them. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some staff won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, for the alternatives
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
If the schedule moves, tell us: we can hold the roast for a short time.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. 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.
For event organisers in St Peter's
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll 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.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
- Sign-off for outside caterers
- Access through the site gates
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rotisserie chicken
