For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What we serve, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, especially for crew who do not eat pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some crew will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
