- A clear list of what’s included
- Which meats, sides and extras are included
- How long the roast takes and when they’ll arrive
- Allergen information for every dish
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some staff will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
Give us a contact on site for the day, so we can find you quickly.

What a hog roast costs
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- The date and time of year
- Travel to Oversland
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- How long the roast and service take
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Details that help
When you enquire, please mention:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The venue or postcode
- An estimate of numbers
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your staff event: fill in our quote form.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, nobody from the team is stuck cooking. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
