What we serve, dish by dish

What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How many people are eating
- The journey to the venue
- Crockery choices
UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- The venue or postcode
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Every care home event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your care home event: fill in our quote form.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some residents won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
We arrive early and set up outdoors, following your sign-in and safety rules.
