Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which often makes it better value. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.

Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Find out who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
We will agree a contact for the day, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
