Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with sandwiches from a shop, a hot hog roast keeps morale up. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Label the alternatives clearly
We follow location rules on vehicles and timings.
For an evening wrap, tell us about lighting at base.

Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
How we price a hog roast for the crew
Your quote depends on:

- Site access
- Season and day of the week
- The number of people
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
