Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
We set up on the agreed spot, often first thing, and the roast cooks through the morning.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
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.

Working with your venue
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- Someone to meet us at reception
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
