Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
Warn the neighbours: roasting takes hours and the smell travels.

- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- A word with the neighbours
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Organising for someone else?
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
