DIY versus a catered hog roast

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

What a hog roast costs

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:

  • Site access
  • The date and time of year
  • Distance from us
  • How many people are eating

Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

What we need to know

Here’s what we’ll ask:

  • The address or postcode
  • A photo of the cooking area
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Which meats and sides you’d like

It is easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.

Crackling

For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty.

A hog roast or other catering?

For client events, add china, sides and a second roast for a more polished feel. 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. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.

Planners, venues and businesses

For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.

Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.

The process

Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Daytime open days in Balls Green are rarely affected by light, but in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

  1. Tell us where, when, how many and when you eat.
  2. We confirm the site details and send a price.
  3. We set up early and roast through the morning.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve on time.
  5. We pack away and go.

Before we arrive

  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Send final numbers in good time
