Looking after everyone
Some guests will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:

- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us about delays.
Lights around the carving station add atmosphere.

What comes off the roaster

Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
