Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
A cooked roast holds for a while, so keep us posted.

Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A level outdoor area that can be lit
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees
- Firm ground rather than soft lawn
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Full catering or machine hire?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Common questions in Nutfield
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Is Nutfield too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do. Hot rolls on a cold evening sell well.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
