Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
If the party runs late, we can hold the roast a little, so tell us about delays.

Christmas hog roast in Eyhorne Street, carved to order
Add roast turkey alongside the hog, with roast potatoes and salads. Chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option cover everyone else. Whether it’s sports club Christmas do’s and winter open days, we can cook roast potatoes, crackling and apple sauce and more.

About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.

A hog roast compared with other options
At a winter fair, a hog roast stall is one of the most popular hot-food options. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why us?
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Carved to order by a chef
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
Take a look at our pricing or our hog roast cost guide.
Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
