Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Let us know roughly how many children
Ensure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In Tisman's Common, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
