How our corporate hog roast works in Westborough
Whether it is twenty people or a whole site, the roast is sized to fit. Give us numbers and timings and we’ll quote. Typical bookings include milestone celebrations and new premises openings, serving crackling, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls.
Work events near Westborough might be at a farm business, a workshop or an industrial unit. A hog roast suits all of them. Our chef carves in front of your staff, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

- Someone to meet us at reception

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

About the food
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Rotisserie chicken
For staff who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children usually like it too.
