Planning help
Looking after everyone
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
If the party runs late, the roast can wait a little, so tell us if timings change.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
Before you choose a spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- Space for our vehicle near the drive
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
- Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

Is a hog roast right for your party?
DIY or catered? DIY hire works for relaxed get-togethers; catering suits bigger parties. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
