Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
You will not 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.

Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
About the food
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children generally like it too.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Slindon Common questions
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
We are gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Do you cover Slindon Common?
Yes, Slindon Common is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
Is it just pork?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the pork. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

A hog roast compared with other options
Full catering or machine hire? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. For bigger events, catering is normally the easier choice. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- An itemised quote
