How to compare hog roast caterers

Planning for dietary needs

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:

  • Count who does not eat pork
  • Send the allergen list round before the party
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Request gluten-free rolls

The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Should I cook it myself?

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Before you choose a spot

  • Hardstanding if possible in winter
  • A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
  • A level outdoor area that can be lit

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
