Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Tilmanstone

The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.

Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

The process
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook. For a staff lunch in Tilmanstone, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- We pack away and leave the site as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
