What else we do in Draycott
Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Think about children’s portions
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so it’s cooking when guests arrive.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
Where the roaster can go in Draycott
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A level patio, lawn or driveway
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to ordering takeaway, the roast is an event in itself. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
How the day works
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. In Draycott, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:55pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- We cook for hours on site.
- We serve when you’re ready.
- We leave the garden tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know about tight access
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
