Prices and what affects them

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Crockery choices
  • Access to the cooking area
  • The number of people
  • The date and time of year

Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

What we need to know

When you contact us, please mention:

  • A picture of the cooking area
  • Rough numbers
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Your menu choices

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: send us your details through our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers

Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Forty Green: your questions answered

Is Forty Green close to London?

About 38 miles from central London.

Is Forty Green too small for a hog roast?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

How much does a hog roast cost?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your care home event for a quote.

Do you come to Forty Green?

We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.

What comes with the hog roast?

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?

We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.

Do you need power or water?

Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.

Before you choose a spot

The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:

  • The manager’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • Away from emergency routes
  • Flat ground in the grounds

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

What happens on the day

Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. By late September, the light in Forty Green goes at about 7:05pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.

  1. A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
  2. We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
  3. Your kitchen team tells us about diets and textures.
  4. On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
  5. After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Allergies and dietary needs

Some residents will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Plan separately for halal if needed
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Request thin slices

We arrive early and set up outdoors, following your sign-in and safety rules.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
