What a hog roast costs
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every care home event is different. The main factors are:
- The number of people
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Whether you want china
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
What we need to know
These are the details we need:
- Allergies we should know about
- Any venue rules
- What the outdoor space is like
- Your menu choices
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.

We roast outdoors under cover in the garden or car park, well away from ambulance routes. We serve roast potatoes, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and we’re often booked for retirement housing events and day centre get-togethers.

Prestonville questions
Can you roast near the sea around Prestonville?

The process
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In Prestonville, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so winter hog roast days are best kept to lunchtime.
- We start with the date and numbers.
- We agree the cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve and serve where you choose.
- We clear away quietly.
How to prepare
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Think about shelter for your residents
