- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
We clear the pitch and take everything away.

Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
