Prices and what affects them

- Whether you want china

What we need to know
When you get in touch, it helps to include:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The address or postcode
- Rough numbers
- Any venue rules
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: send us your details through our quote form.
Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
We set up on the agreed spot, frequently first thing, then roast through the morning.
If it is a themed open day, tell us.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
