What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Time on site
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of people
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

How the day works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Late-December sunset in Goodley Stock comes at about 3:55pm. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station, and a lit path from the door.
