Corporate hog roast in Winterbourne, slow-roasted on site

The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, which keeps it hot and moist.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
How the day works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. After-work summer events in Winterbourne have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer and 8:45pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. In late September, the light goes at about 7:00pm.
