The process

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. For a summer hog roast day in Emberton, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden events easy. In winter, dark by about 3:50pm, a lunchtime event is better.

  1. We start with the date and numbers.
  2. We agree the cooking spot and quote.
  3. We roast through the morning.
  4. We serve inside or out.
  5. We clear away quietly.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know about tight access
  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Read our pricing and our hog roast cost guide.

For planners, venues and organisers

For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.

Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Looking after everyone

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:

  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Stuffing usually contains gluten
  • Count families and staff too
  • Halal is not offered

We clear away quietly.

China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

What we serve, dish by dish

Roast pork

Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.

What a hog roast costs

We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

  • Site access
  • Whether you want china
  • The number of people
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays

For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
