Corporate hog roast for Tye
About our corporate hog roast in Tye
Instead of booking a restaurant, bring the food to the team. Keep everyone on site with a hog roast. Whether it’s retirements and long-service awards and project wrap-ups, we can cook crackling, hog roast rolls and spit-roast lamb.
At country workplaces around Tye, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.
What the cooking area needs
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- Someone to meet us at reception
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
We set up on the agreed spot, frequently first thing, and the roast cooks through the morning.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
For event organisers in Tye
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

Tye questions
What’s the nearest station to Tye?
The closest is Emsworth station, roughly 2.6 miles away.
Could you cook in Eames Farm?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Can you work to our lunch time?
Yes. We time the roast to be ready and serve quickly. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
