Corporate hog roast for your staff event in Wigley
Instead of booking a restaurant, bring the food to the team. A hog roast in the car park or grounds keeps everyone together. On the menu are salads, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers, and we’re regularly asked to cater team treats and site open days.
For farms and rural sites near Wigley, a hog roast brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
How we price a hog roast for your team
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Crockery choices
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Distance from us
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What to tell us
When you get in touch, it helps to include:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- What the outdoor space is like
- Your menu choices
- Roughly how many people
To get a quote, just send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Send us your details through our quote form.

Full catering or machine hire?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
