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.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Count residents who need an alternative
We clear away quietly.
Ask about china.
About the food
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
