Corporate hog roast in Winsor, slow-roasted on site
For a staff day in Winsor, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser: quick to serve, easy to eat standing up and enjoyed by most people. There are choices for people who don’t eat pork. On the menu are coleslaw, hog roast rolls and spit-roast lamb, and we are often booked for launch days and client hospitality.
Rural businesses around Winsor can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a hog roast a real treat. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.
Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Planning for dietary needs
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
We set up on the agreed spot, often first thing, then roast through the morning.
Ask about china for a more formal lunch.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
