How our corporate hog roast works in Trash Green
Workplaces have rules, and we work to them: vehicle access, gas equipment and where we can cook. Tell us what your facilities team needs. We serve hog roast rolls, coleslaw and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for long-service celebrations and thank-you lunches.
Near Trash Green, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Trash Green: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Trash Green?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What’s the nearest station to Trash Green?
The closest is Theale station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A photo helps.
Where on site can you cook?
Wherever your facilities team agrees, outdoors and under cover.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.

Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
If the schedule moves, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.
Should I cook it myself?
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.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
