Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
- Think about children’s portions
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
We set up in the agreed spot, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
