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
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
We serve on time, so people get back to work on time.
If it is a themed open day, tell us.
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll 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.
