Planning for dietary needs
Some staff won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed

We’ll sign in and follow site rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
