How we price a hog roast for your team
The price comes down to:
- How many people are eating
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Distance from us
- Time on site
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, for the alternatives
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the site as we found it.

Planning help
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
