Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting, so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
The vegan option is popular at festivals.
The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
