DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what affects the price:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- How many people are eating

When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What to tell us

- The date and time of the event
- An estimate of numbers
- Allergies we should know about
- Rules from the venue or landowner
