Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Balance the food line-up

For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
