Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
