What affects the price in Booker
We work out each quote from:
- How long the roast and service take
- Distance from us
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How easy it is to reach the spot
The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Dietary requirements
- Rough numbers
- Your date and serving time
- Your menu choices
When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. Ours lists it clearly. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
- Share the allergen list with the crew
We clear our spot after lunch.
Sides make a proper lunch.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.

Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:

- Access agreed with locations

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwiches from a shop, hot food makes a difference on a long day. Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.

How the day works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. On a winter shoot near Booker, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We clear our spot.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Give us a contact number for the day
