Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
