The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Halal is not offered
- Post allergen details at base
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
We arrive early and set up at base, so the roast is ready by lunch.
