Party hog roast in Chesterton
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Think about children’s portions
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can bring everything through.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.

Whether it’s back-garden get-togethers and ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries, we will put together a menu of a vegan burger or sausage, apple sauce and crackling for your guests.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
