How our corporate hog roast works in Tilford Common
Workplaces have rules, and we work to them: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Pass on your site’s requirements. Whether it is family fun days and long-service celebrations, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken for your staff.
Rural businesses around Tilford Common can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

Organising for someone else?

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

The process
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. In Tilford Common, summer evenings stay light until about 9:20pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. By late September, sunset is around 7:05pm.

- We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- We tidy up and leave the site clean.
Getting ready for the day

What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with individual food vans, carving serves the whole team fast. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
