Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Think about children’s portions
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
We set up in the agreed spot, so the party carries on around us.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.

How the day works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. A summer party in Four Oaks stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.
