Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Remember stuffing usually contains gluten
- Balance the food line-up
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
We carve to order through the agreed hours.
Add coleslaw.
How it works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Aston Abbotts are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve and serve through the agreed hours.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Aston Abbotts
Can you come to a school fair in Aston Abbotts?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Is Aston Abbotts too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
What do you need from the organiser?
Cooking is gas-fired. A supply is useful for lights.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you serve the food?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can you sell directly to visitors?
That depends on the event. Let us know how you’d like it to work and we’ll discuss the options.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
