DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
We follow your site’s sign-in and safety rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.
Add sides for a bigger lunch.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, everyone gets to join in. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
