Why us?
- Timed around your day
- Fresh carving at the serving station

How we price a hog roast for your team
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Plates or china
- The journey to the venue
- Access to the cooking area
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Details that help
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Rough numbers
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Any dietary needs or allergies
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Tell us about your staff event for a quote: fill in our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Clearance from the building and parked cars
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- Approval from facilities for gas equipment
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
