About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, then roast through the morning.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we’ll fit in.
