Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
- Count non-pork eaters, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- If any guests need halal food, arrange it separately
For evening food, we carve as the dancing gets going, timed with you in advance.
For a sit-down meal, ask for china, quoted separately.
Wedding hog roast in Pamber Green, carved to order
The carving station becomes a focal point: people gather round as the chef carves. It feels like an occasion. We are often asked to cater marquee receptions and farm weddings, with salads, carved roast pork and crackling.
A wedding in a small place like Pamber Green often means a field, a barn or a family garden. A hog roast is made for that: no kitchen needed, just an outdoor cooking spot. Let us know about access and ground. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
