What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- The number of people
- Crockery choices
- Season and day of the week
- Access to the cooking area
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The venue or postcode
- Dietary requirements
- An estimate of numbers
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: send us your details through our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Request thin slices
- Count families and staff too
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Tell us about dietary needs in advance
We clear away quietly.
China crockery is available on request.

Questions from South Park
Can you do a hog roast in Castle Grounds?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Is South Park close to London?
About 20 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you come to South Park?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
