What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- Whether you want china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Which meats and sides you choose
- 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. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Rough numbers
- The address or postcode
- Allergies we should know about
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or MK10 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Use our quote form.
The process
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. In summer, Kingston has daylight until about 9:25pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- Your activities lead or manager gets in touch with a date.
- We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
- The kitchen shares residents’ dietary needs with us.
- Residents can see and smell the roast from the morning.
- Lunch is carved and served, and we pack away quietly afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Name a contact for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
Getting a price
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Send us your details through our quote form.

Other occasions in Kingston
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, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a trip out, it’s easier for everyone to enjoy. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why Kingston hosts choose us
- All the equipment comes with us
