What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- Access to the cooking area
- How many people are eating
- Distance from us
- Which meats and sides you choose
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- An estimate of numbers
- Any venue rules
- The date and time of the event
- Dietary requirements
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Send us your details through our quote form.
Working with your venue
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
About the food
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, and it is carved the same way.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. After-work summer events in High Cross have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer and 8:50pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. In late September, the light goes at about 7:05pm.
