Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, for the alternatives
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite

Afterwards we tidy up, and leave the site clean.
Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.
Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
