Planning for dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Count non-pork eaters, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
We’ll liaise with your venue coordinator, for access and timings.
Choose sides to make it a full meal.
Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. In Drayton Beauchamp, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food is frequently carved in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
