How we price a hog roast for your team
Your quote depends on:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel to Pittswood
- Plates or china
- The number of people
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- What the outdoor space is like
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Your date and serving time
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.
A closer look at the menu
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so nobody misses out.
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Request gluten-free rolls
We set up on the agreed spot, often first thing, then roast through the morning.
If it’s a themed open day, tell us and we will fit in.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
FAQs for Pittswood
Is Pittswood close to London?
About 26 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Pittswood?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Can you send documents for facilities?
Each site is different: send us the checklist and we’ll reply.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Who serves?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can you set up in our car park?
Wherever your facilities team agrees, as long as it’s outdoors.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
- A contact on site
- Shelter for the team
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
