What a hog roast costs
The price comes down to:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Travel to Crockhurst Street
- The number of people
- The date and time of year
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Rough numbers
- Where the event is
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.
The process
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 Crockhurst Street, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:15pm.
- Tell us the base location.
- We agree our position with locations.
- We roast under cover at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We tidy up and go.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
