- Somewhere to park our vehicle
- Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Space away from buildings, vehicles and trees
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Working with your venue
If you’re a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Numbers
- Distance from us
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Your menu choices
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Where the event is
For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or PO13 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Send us your details through our quote form.
