Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some visitors will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Plan separately for halal if needed
Tell us about ground conditions, especially after rain.
A vegan burger or sausage covers vegan visitors.
Step by step
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Summer events in Foreland Fields have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
