How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
Each price is built from:
- Menu choices and extras
- Numbers
- Plates or china
- The serving time and how long we are on site
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.
What we need to know
Here’s what we will ask:
- Dietary requirements
- Any venue rules
- Roughly how many people
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.
How the day works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. In Birtley Green, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
- Send us your Christmas party date, venue and numbers.
- We check the date and the outdoor cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We set up under cover in daylight and roast through the afternoon.
- The team serves hot rolls at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
How to get a price
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so it is easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.
