What affects the price in Nursling
The price comes down to:
- The date and time of year
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The number of people
- Whether you want china
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

- Roughly how many people
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Rules from the venue or landowner

Why choose a hog roast in Nursling?
Next to sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why us?
- Carved to order by a chef
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Timed around your day
- We bring everything to cook and serve

Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. In Nursling, summer evenings stay light until about 9:25pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. By late September, sunset is around 7:10pm.

Planning the cooking spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- Shelter for the team
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
