A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then tidy up.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

The process
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In Brabourne Lees, late May sunsets come at about 8:45pm and midsummer ones at about 9:15pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:50pm, need lights by the roaster.
- It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
- We check the space and send a clear quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- When it’s time to eat, the chef carves and we serve.
- We pack away and leave the garden tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
