Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
We get to the pitch early, so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
Coleslaw goes well with pork rolls.
Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
