What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
For event organisers in Crumbles
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.

Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Think about children’s portions
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
At food time, we carve and serve, then clear up the serving area.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Full catering or machine hire?
