Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How long the roast and service take
- Access to the cooking area
- Plates or china
- Season and day of the week
The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Where the event is

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
For client events, add china, sides and a second roast to make it more formal. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
