Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.

Planning help
Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
