Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
Have a word with the neighbours first: roasting takes hours and the smell travels, and they may ask for a roll.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
