For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Before you choose a spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- A named contact on the day
- Away from emergency routes
- The manager’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
What we serve
- Rotisserie chicken
- Stuffing and apple sauce

How we price a hog roast day
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- How long the roast and service take
- Whether you want china
- Distance from us
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- A photo of the cooking area
- The venue or postcode
- An estimate of numbers
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How it works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. Late May in Pitchcott has light until about 8:55pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- We talk through residents’ needs with your team.
- We send a quote.
- We set up outdoors, clear of access routes.
- Food goes out on plates.
- We leave the grounds tidy.
