Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
We set up in the agreed spot, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Common questions in Barns Green
Do you come out to small places like Barns Green?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to Barns Green?
Christs Hospital station, about 1.9 miles north-east of the centre.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do you bring a gazebo?
Not for the cooking, but a gazebo or indoor space for guests is a good backup.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Step by step
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. By late September, sunset in Barns Green is about 7:05pm; by December it is about 3:55pm. Plan lights for the path and the food.

Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
