What a hog roast costs
Things that change the price:
- The journey to the venue
- Access to the cooking area
- Time on site
- Which meats and sides you choose
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

- Allergies we should know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, nobody from the team is stuck cooking. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why us?
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- A clear quote with everything listed
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.

Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
