Corporate hog roast in Thrupp, carved to order
Sites typically have rules for outside caterers: access, gas cooking and the cooking area. Tell us what your facilities team needs. On the menu are crackling, salads and coleslaw, and we’re regularly asked to cater team days and away days and open days and family days.
Near Thrupp, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a hog roast a real treat. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Planning the cooking 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
- Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A contact on site

Take a look at how we price and what a hog roast costs.
The process
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Lunchtime bookings in Thrupp are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:30pm.
- Tell us where, when, how many and when you eat.
- We check access and gas rules and quote.
- The roast starts early on site.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve on time.
- We pack away and go.
Before we arrive
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
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.
