DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
How our corporate hog roast works in Priestwood Green
At an open day, you need food that serves plenty of people quickly. A hog roast does exactly that, with our staff serving and clearing. We are frequently asked to cater team treats and end-of-project celebrations, serving coleslaw, salads and crackling.
For farms and rural sites near Priestwood Green, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. Timings are planned around your staff event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Site access
