Should I cook it myself?

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

What affects the price in Egerton Forstal

- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Distance from us
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

For event organisers in Egerton Forstal
