Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Send the allergen list round before the party
At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, so food goes out straight from the roaster.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Planning the cooking spot
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- Firm ground rather than soft lawn
