Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Make the stall easy to find
We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting, timed for the gates opening.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.

Planners, venues and businesses
Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Full catering or machine hire?
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.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.
