Each price is built from:
- Menu choices and extras
- Time on site
- Plates or china
- The date and time of year
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

- Any venue rules
- Roughly how many people
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The address or postcode
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We will check the date and send a quote. Send us your details through our quote form.
About our corporate hog roast in Whitsbury
Sites typically have rules for outside caterers: access, gas cooking and the cooking area. Tell us what your facilities team needs. We’re often asked to cater client and customer events and launch days, with hog roast rolls, salads and coleslaw.
At country workplaces around Whitsbury, a hog roast brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Tell us about access. Timings are planned around your staff event, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- 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 clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the site clean.
Ask about china for a more formal lunch, quoted separately.
Whitsbury questions
Is Whitsbury too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Can a company book?
Let us know your company’s booking requirements, and we will confirm how booking and payment work.
About the food
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, and handy for anyone who does not eat pork.
Why choose a hog roast in Whitsbury?
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast keeps everyone on site and saves travel. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why us?
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
See our prices page and our hog roast cost guide.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- A named contact for the day
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Catered or do it yourself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
How the day works

Lunchtime bookings in Whitsbury are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:05pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
