Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
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.
Corporate hog roast in Yarmouth, slow-roasted on site
Staff days in Yarmouth work well with a hog roast: rolls are fast to serve and easy to eat. Chicken, lamb and vegetarian options cover everyone else. Typical bookings include thank-you lunches and long-service celebrations, with crackling, spit-roast lamb and coleslaw.
Rural businesses around Yarmouth can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a hog roast a real treat. Our chef carves in front of your staff, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

A closer look at the menu
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, and handy for anyone who doesn’t eat pork.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Yarmouth for staff days and open days
Yarmouth is about 4 miles south-east of Lymington, in the Isle of Wight. From village halls to gardens and fields, staff events around Yarmouth suit a hog roast. Yarmouth is one of 125 towns and villages in the Isle of Wight where we cater. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 15 miles away.
The A3054 put Yarmouth within easy reach for us. Within reach of Yarmouth are historic houses such as Mottistone Manor (4.8 miles south-east). Historic venues suit client days, but check their rules on gas cooking first. The coast is within about 3 miles, and open sites can be breezy, so we choose a sheltered spot for the roaster.
Here we cover the PO41 postcode area, and we can cater your staff event anywhere in it. That could mean a staff event in a garden on High Street, Station Road and Alma Place or the roads around them, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the roaster. Yarmouth sits on or near the A3054, which makes travel to your staff event easy. Neighbouring places where we cater staff events include Bouldnor (1 mile east), Cranmore (2 miles east), Hamstead (3 miles east), Shalfleet (3 miles east) and East End (5 miles north). Larger places within reach include Newport (9 miles east), Ryde (15 miles east), Cowes (9 miles north-east), Sandown (15 miles east), Shanklin (15 miles east) and Ventnor (15 miles south-east). Some remote sites need extra planning, so ask early about your staff event.
A little further out are Yarmouth Castle (within half a mile north-west) and Ferguson Family Museum (1.2 miles south-west). Within reach you’ll find Lymington and Keyhaven Marshes Nature Reserve and Afton Down.
- Pubs nearby include Bugle Hotel (within half a mile north-west)
- Local facilities include Medina (2.4 miles south-west)
What affects the price in Yarmouth
There’s no fixed price list, because every staff event is different. The main factors are:
- The number of people
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Distance from us

Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
Give us a contact on site for the day, so we can find you quickly.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Open days in Yarmouth typically finish in daylight, but in December it is dark by about 4:05pm, so late events need lighting.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- Afterwards we clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
