What a hog roast costs

- Plates or china
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Season and day of the week

When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Your date and serving time

How our corporate hog roast works in Danaway
Instead of booking a restaurant, bring the food to the team. Keep everyone on site with a hog roast. Whether it’s summer staff parties and site open days, we’ll put together a menu of halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and coleslaw.
For farms and rural sites near Danaway, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Next to sandwich platters, a hog roast is hot, fresh and feels like an event. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Why book with us
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Carved to order by a chef

How it works
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your staff, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. For a staff lunch in Danaway, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.
