Common questions in Plaish
Can you roast near the sea around Plaish?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do you come out to small places like Plaish?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can you feed everyone in a short break?
Yes. We time the roast to be ready and serve quickly. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
