Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
We serve hot rolls on cue, carved fresh.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
