How our corporate hog roast works in Sun Rising
Workplaces have rules, and we work to them: access, gas cooking and the cooking area. Pass on your site’s requirements. Whether it is end-of-project celebrations and open days and family days, we can cook hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and salads.
For farms and rural sites near Sun Rising, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. Timings are planned around your staff event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

FAQs for Sun Rising
Is Sun Rising too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
Yes. Add china, sides and a second roast for a more formal feel.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
Can you set up in our car park?
A car park, yard or grounds typically works, given level ground and clearance.
Can you serve a fixed lunch break?
Give us your break time and numbers and we will make it work.
Other occasions in Sun Rising
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
About the food
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
Name someone in facilities or reception for the day.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a staff barbecue, everyone gets to join in. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
What you get with us
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Carved by our chef in front of your staff
- Served at the time you choose
