About our corporate hog roast in Wivelrod
For a staff day in Wivelrod, 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. For milestone celebrations and team days and away days, we can cook coleslaw, halloumi skewers and salads for your staff.
Rural businesses around Wivelrod can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a hog roast a real treat. The carving happens right in front of your staff, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Why choose a hog roast in Wivelrod?

- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Service is fast once we carve.
- We leave the site clean.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
