Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Make the stall easy to find
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Balance the food line-up
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
We follow the organiser’s site rules, including vehicle times and pitch layout.
Coleslaw goes well with pork rolls.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

How the day works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Summer events in Crowthorne have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
