Full catering or machine hire?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Why book with us
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
