For farms and rural sites near Mattingley, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Share the allergen information with the team
We’ll sign in and follow site rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with individual food vans, a hog roast feeds plenty of people quickly from one roast. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
