Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
If the party runs late, the roast can wait a little, so just let us know.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
How the day works
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Sunset in Hurst Green is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.

- We check the space and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours ahead and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve when you’re ready.

Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- A step-free way into the garden
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A heads-up for next door
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
