A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
We clear away, even on a cold, wet night.
Roast potatoes suit a winter menu.
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
