Planners, venues and businesses
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
We serve on time, so people get back to work on time.

We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
The process

Lunchtime bookings in Lynsore Bottom 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 check with facilities and quote.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Service is fast once we carve.
- We clear up afterwards.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
- Someone to meet us at reception
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
