Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some visitors will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Signpost the stall clearly
We serve as the queue moves.
Coleslaw goes well with pork rolls.
What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll.

Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

Common questions in Woodside
Is Woodside close to London?
Roughly 25 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you come out to small places like Woodside?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Step by step
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Summer events in Woodside have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We clear up and go.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Send final numbers in good time
- Give us a contact number for the day
