DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
How we price a hog roast for your team
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Site access
- The number of people
- How long the roast and service take
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What to tell us
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- An estimate of numbers
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The date and time of the event
- The address or postcode
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We will confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.
