Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- Space for our vehicle near the drive
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
What we serve
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Salads
- Hog roast rolls
- Crackling

- Jacket potatoes
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Coleslaw

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Add a dietary question to the invite
If the party runs late, the roast can wait a little, so just let us know.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
