Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
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.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Permission for cooking on the site
- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
- Details of what the event requires
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Full catering or machine hire?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Working with your venue
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
