Corporate hog roast in Weddington, slow-roasted on site
Most teams have a set break, so we plan the roast to be ready on time. Rolls are the quickest way to serve. Popular choices include rotisserie chicken, salads and coleslaw, and we are often booked for client hospitality and end-of-project celebrations.
Near Weddington, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. Our chef carves in front of your staff, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Access through the site gates

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
Afterwards we tidy up, and leave the site clean.
Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.
The process
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your staff will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In Weddington, summer evenings stay light until about 9:15pm, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. In late September, the light goes at about 7:00pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check site access and send a price.
- We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- Afterwards we clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
