How our corporate hog roast works in Upper Eddington
Long-service awards, retirements and site openings in Upper Eddington all suit a hog roast, as a thank-you to the team. For retirements and long-service awards and customer days, we can cook hog roast rolls, salads and coleslaw for your staff.
For farms and rural sites near Upper Eddington, we can cook in the yard. Tell us about access. The carving happens right in front of your staff, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

For event organisers in Upper Eddington
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
How it works
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. For a staff lunch in Upper Eddington, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
