Catered or do it yourself?

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

The process

The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Late-September events in Dragons Green lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.

  1. Start with the date and numbers.
  2. We agree how food will be paid for.
  3. We roast on the pitch.
  4. Carving keeps the queue moving.
  5. We clear up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Looking after everyone

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Show allergens at the stall
  • Make the stall easy to find
  • Plan separately for halal if needed

We follow the organiser’s site rules, including when vehicles can move.

Chicken widens the choice.
