What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, served in a roll with salads.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.

What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- Somewhere warm and dry for guests to eat
- Parking near the cooking area
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Add dietary questions to the invite
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
Lighting at the serving table matters after dark, and we’ll plan it with you.
Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
