Catered or do it yourself?
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.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Put the menu on the invitation
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
A hog roast compared with other options
A hog roast has one downside: it is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too for anyone who does not eat it. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why us?
- Sides to make it a full meal
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
