DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a winter barbecue, slow roasting suits winter far better. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why book with us
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- No surprises: everything in writing
What affects the price in Ascott d'Oyley
The price comes down to:
- How long the roast and service take
- The journey to the venue
- The number of people
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
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.
Details that help
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Allergies we should know about
- Roughly how many people
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Any venue rules
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your Christmas party: send us your details through our quote form.
