What we serve, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Label alternatives clearly
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. Sunset in Bulphan in late December is about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- Send us your date, venue and numbers.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We pack up, even in the rain.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- A short route for our equipment
As a London location, Bulphan is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
