Working with your venue

If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
FAQs for Sevington
Do you come out to small places like Sevington?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
It depends on the venue. Ask your venue early, and we will work with them on the details.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Put a dietary question on the invitation
- Note which guests don’t eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
Give us your venue coordinator’s details, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.
Salads, new potatoes and roast potatoes make a full wedding breakfast.
