Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll, just as they should.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
