About the food
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, carved to order at the serving station, frequently with mint sauce.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Working with your venue
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, and the roast cooks through the morning.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
