How we price a hog roast day
We do not use a fixed price list, because every care home event is different. The main factors are:
- How long the roast and service take
- Crockery choices
- The journey to the venue
- The number of people
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:
- Allergies we should know about
- The venue or postcode
- The date and time of the event
- What the outdoor space is like
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Fill in our quote form.
Planning the cooking spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- A level outdoor area
- Clear of ambulance and delivery access
- Clear of bedroom windows
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

FAQs for Langney
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you do a hog roast in Princes Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you carve thinly?
We can carve thinly and serve on plates with potatoes and apple sauce.
Where will the roaster go?
Always outside, agreed with the manager.
What comes with the hog roast?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
How do you handle allergies?
Every dish comes with allergen information for your team to check.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Where residents need modified meals, the kitchen prepares their portions while others enjoy the roast. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

How the day works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In late May, sunset in Langney is about 8:45pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- You tell us when, how many and where.
- We agree the cooking spot, clear of emergency access, and quote.
- We set up under cover and get the roast going.
- We serve in the dining room or garden, as you prefer.
- We tidy up and leave calmly.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Name a contact for the day
