Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Check other traders are not all selling pork
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
  • Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus

We get to the pitch early, so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Catered or do it yourself?

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

How to compare hog roast caterers

A hog roast or other catering?

Compared with burger vans, a hog roast stands out. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why book with us

  • Cooked on the day, low and slow
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Carved by our chef in front of your visitors
  • Serving and clearing done for you

Take a look at our pricing and the cost guide.

What we serve, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Golden rotisserie chicken can be served in a roll or on a plate.

Roast pork

Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.

How it works

Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. In December, Rushlake Green is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.

  1. Share the date, site and expected crowds.
  2. We discuss the package or stall options.
  3. We roast on the pitch.
  4. We serve rolls quickly.
  5. We tidy the pitch.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

How to get a price

Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Send us your date for a quote: use our quote form.
