A closer look at the menu
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, served in a roll with salads.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A level patio, lawn or driveway
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- Parking close to the house

Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
