Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Halal isn’t offered
- Remember stuffing typically contains gluten
We work to your event plan, including when vehicles can move.
Coleslaw goes well with pork rolls.

For planners, venues and organisers
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
