- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Full catering or machine hire?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Working with your venue
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.

Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the site as we found it.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
