What else we do in Soldridge
Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Soldridge
Do you come out to small places like Soldridge?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Soldridge close to London?
About 50 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Is a hog roast smart enough for clients?
With china and sides, it works well for clients.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What about staff who do not eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
Can you feed everyone in a short break?
Tell us the numbers and the time and we will make it work.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
For planners, venues and organisers
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, so people get back to work on time.
China crockery is available for client events, quoted separately.
