Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Site access
- Distance from us
- Plates or china
- Season and day of the week
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

- The venue or postcode
- A picture of the cooking area
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwich platters, a hog roast is hot, fresh and feels like an event. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why book with us
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Timed around your day
- Carved by our chef in front of your staff
- Sides to make it a full meal
