Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.
Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Request thin slices
- Stuffing usually contains gluten
Carers can help residents choose and carry plates.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
