How we price a hog roast for your team
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- How many people are eating
- The date and time of year
- Access to the cooking area
- How long the roast and service take
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Your menu choices
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The venue or postcode
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
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.
Step by step
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Lunchtime bookings in East Ashling are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.

Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
Let us know about changes: we can hold the roast for a short time.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Level hardstanding or lawn
- Clearance from the building and parked cars
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.
