Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Is a hog roast right for your shoot?
Compared with sandwiches from a shop, a hot hog roast keeps morale up. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What you get with us
- Carved by our chef in front of your crew
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- A choice of salads and potatoes

What affects the price in Cogges
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

- Crockery choices
- The journey to the venue
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What we need to know
When you enquire, please mention:
- The venue or postcode
- Roughly how many people
- Allergies we should know about
- Your menu choices
When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. Ours lists it clearly. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
How it works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. In December, daylight in Cogges ends around 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:30pm.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
