Corporate hog roast in Worplesdon, carved to order
For a client event, a hog roast carved by a chef makes an impression. Add china and sides for a more formal feel. We serve crackling, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken, and we’re often booked for end-of-project celebrations and retirement do’s.
Near Worplesdon, workplaces can be far from shops, so a hog roast lunch is welcome. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
What we serve, 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.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
