1. Do you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Absolutely! While hog roasts are at the heart of what we do, we make sure no guest is left out. We offer a fantastic range of vegetarian and vegan alternatives such as grilled vegetable and halloumi skewers, hearty vegan pulled jackfruit in a smoky hickory BBQ sauce, and fresh seasonal salads. If you have something specific in mind, we’re also more than happy to create bespoke dishes tailored to your preferences. Whether it’s a wedding, corporate event, or private party, we ensure every guest enjoys a meal full of flavour and prepared to the same high standard as our roasts.
2. How many guests can you cater for?
We can cater for events of all sizes – from small, intimate gatherings of 30 people right up to large-scale celebrations and corporate functions with hundreds of guests. Our menus are designed to be flexible, so whether it’s a private garden party or a festival-style wedding, we can scale up or down to suit your numbers while always delivering the same quality of service and food.
3. Can you provide more than just hog roasts?
Definitely! While our hog roasts are our signature, our menus extend far beyond that. We offer BBQs, Southern slow roast feasts, gourmet sides, fresh salads, canapés, and indulgent desserts. We also serve a wide range of meats such as beef brisket, chicken, ribs, and sausages, along with creative vegetarian and vegan options. This variety makes it easy to create a tailored menu that suits your event style and your guests’ tastes.
4. Do you provide staff to serve the food?
Yes, we do. Our experienced catering team handles everything for you — from the slow roasting and carving to serving your guests with professionalism and a smile. Depending on your chosen service style, we can provide buffet service, plated meals, or even table platters. Our staff are there to make sure the event runs smoothly so that you can relax and enjoy your day.
5. What about dietary requirements and allergies?
We take dietary requirements and allergies very seriously. We can provide gluten-free bread rolls, dairy-free options, and carefully prepared alternatives for any guests with allergies. If you let us know in advance, we’ll ensure every guest has a safe, delicious option to enjoy. Allergen information is clearly available on request, and our team is trained to manage food handling with care and attention.
6. Do you supply crockery, cutlery, and napkins?
Yes — we supply everything you need for service. Our standard packages include eco-friendly disposable bamboo plates, cutlery, and high-quality napkins. If you’d like something more formal, we can also arrange porcelain crockery, stainless steel cutlery, and linen napkins to suit the style of your event. Whatever the occasion, we’ll make sure the presentation matches your setting.
7. How long does it take to cook a hog roast?
A hog roast typically takes between 6–7 hours to cook to perfection, depending on the size of the pig. Our team arrives well in advance to ensure the roasting process is underway and everything is ready to serve at your chosen time. The result is tender, juicy meat with beautifully crisp crackling – worth every minute of slow roasting.
8. What happens if the weather is bad?
Not a problem! We come fully prepared with gazebos and cover so that cooking and serving can go ahead smoothly whatever the weather. Whether it’s blazing sunshine, a chilly breeze, or a sudden rain shower, our setup is adaptable. We’ll ensure your food is served hot and fresh without any disruption to your event.
9. Do you cater for weddings?
Yes, weddings are one of our specialties! We know how important your big day is, so we work closely with you to create the perfect menu to suit your theme and budget. From rustic hog roasts served outdoors to elegant plated meals, we can tailor the catering to match your vision. We also offer canapés, evening snacks, and desserts so you can cover the whole day with one trusted team.
10. How do I book and what’s the process?
Booking is simple. Once you’ve chosen your menu, we’ll confirm all the details with you, including guest numbers, venue, timings, and any special requests. We require a deposit to secure the date, with the balance due closer to the event. In the run-up, our catering manager will stay in touch to make sure everything runs smoothly. On the day, our team will handle everything — setup, service, and clearing away — so you can focus on enjoying the occasion.
