Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Add a dietary question to the invitation
After service, we clear the serving area and pack away, so there’s very little left to do.
A hog roast can come with lamb or chicken alongside.
