What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing typically contains gluten.
Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Halal isn’t offered
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Show allergens at the stall
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
Name an organiser to meet us.
Chicken widens the choice.

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
Can you come to our fête?

Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Should I cook it myself?
