Planning for dietary needs

Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
Ask about allergies when you send invitations
Find out who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them

The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.

Add lamb or chicken for a second roast, priced in the quote.

What comes off the roaster

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

We can serve in rolls or on plates, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Stuffing and apple sauce

Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.

Catered or do it yourself?

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
