Party hog roast in Woodgreen
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
Party hog roast near Woodgreen
A hog roast works for street parties as well, once the road closure or permission is in place. We serve rotisserie chicken, coleslaw and jacket potatoes, and typical bookings are for wedding anniversaries and engagement parties.
In a small place like Woodgreen, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Questions from Woodgreen
Do you come out to small places like Woodgreen?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
We are gathering after a service at St Boniface: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
What about the neighbours?
Let them know in advance, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
Who serves?
You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you cater in Woodgreen?
We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
