Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Compared with a formal plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and usually better value. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
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 affects the price in Crowthorne
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
