About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Organising for someone else?
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
