A hog roast compared with other options
If the venue has its own caterer, ask whether outside caterers are allowed. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Older guests may prefer food on plates
- Check with family about dietary needs
- Request gluten-free rolls
We hold the food if people are delayed; just let us know.
Serve on plates with salads and potatoes for a sit-down meal.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
