What a hog roast costs
There is no fixed price list, because every Christmas party is different. What matters most:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The number of people
- How long the roast and service take
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
