Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
You will not need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast.
For event organisers in SE22
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
