Planning help
DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so nobody misses out.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, carved to order at the serving station, often with mint sauce.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what affects the price:
- Travel to Amport
- How long the roast and service take
- The number of people
- Which meats and sides you choose
Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Rough numbers
- Your date and serving time
- A photo of the cooking area
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We will confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, so people get back to work on time.
