DIY versus a catered hog roast

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Is a hog roast right for your staff event?

Next to sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.

What you get with us

  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • All the equipment comes with us

Planning for dietary needs

Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Keep alternatives clearly labelled
  • Share the allergen information with the team
  • Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed

On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, and the roast cooks through the morning.

Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.

About the food

Roast pork

The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.

Spit-roast lamb

Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, and handy for anyone who doesn’t eat pork.

Before you choose a spot

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • A safe distance from walls and vehicles
  • Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
  • Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Popular choices

  • Crackling
  • Vegan option (Ve)
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • Salads
  • Spit-roast lamb
  • Hog roast rolls
  • Rotisserie chicken
  • Stuffing and apple sauce

How it works

Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. For a staff lunch in Stanmer, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. You send us the site address, date, numbers and serving window.
  2. We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
  3. On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
  4. We serve quickly within your break.
  5. We pack away and leave the site as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

Getting a price
