Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, for the alternatives
We serve on time, keeping the queue moving.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
Catered or do it yourself?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast keeps everyone on site and saves travel. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.

We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

For a staff lunch in Horley, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. Summer events have daylight until around 9:30pm.
