DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
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.

Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.

The process
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. By late September, sunset in Rayners Lane is about 7:05pm; by December it is about 3:55pm. Plan lights for the path and the food.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.

The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
- Neighbours warned about the smell
