Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
Let us know about changes: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. Lunchtime bookings in Culmers are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- Start with the date, site and numbers.
- We sort access and send a quote.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Service is fast once we carve.
- We clear up afterwards.
How to prepare
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Full catering or machine hire?
