What a hog roast costs
The price comes down to:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Whether you want china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The journey to the venue
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
What to tell us
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- An estimate of numbers
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Where the event is
When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, send us your details through our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Rotisserie chicken
For staff who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children normally like it too.
