Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to taking the team out, a hog roast is easier to organise and keeps people together. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What you get with us
- Timed around your day
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- A choice of salads and potatoes
See our pricing or our hog roast cost guide.
Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
What a hog roast costs
Things that change the price:
- Access to the cooking area
- Crockery choices
- How many people are eating
- The serving time and how long we are on site
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Rough numbers
- Allergies we should know about
- Your date and serving time
- A photo of the cooking area
To get a quote, just send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
