What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- The date and time of year
- Distance from us
- Numbers
- Access to the cooking area
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Halal is not offered
We can serve inside or out, as you prefer.
Serving on plates is frequently easier.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- An activities lead or manager as contact
- Sign-off from management
- A spot that keeps access clear
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken

For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
