How we price a hog roast for your Christmas party
There’s no fixed price list, because every Christmas party is different. What matters most:
- Crockery choices
- How many people are eating
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Time on site
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, please mention:
- A picture of the cooking area
- Your date and serving time
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The venue or postcode
When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, send us your details through our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We pack up, even in the rain.
Preparing for the day

Working with your venue
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
