Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
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.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Find out how many do not eat pork, for the alternatives
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the site clean.
Ask about china for a more formal lunch, quoted separately.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.
