In a small place like Brands Hill, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.
Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Label alternatives clearly
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, so tell us what’s already there.
Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- Parking near the cooking area
- Clearance from walls and tents
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
