Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Think about children’s portions
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
At food time, we carve and serve, then tidy up.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
Planning the cooking spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Neighbours warned about the smell
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- Parking close to the house

Why us?
- Served at the time you choose

- Serving and clearing done for you
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

Should I cook it myself?
