Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to grilling to order, carving is quicker for big numbers. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What you get with us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Carved by our chef in front of your crew
Take a look at how we price and what a hog roast costs.
What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we will plan the vegan burgers or sausages.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, which keeps it hot and moist.
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Share the allergen list with the crew
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
We serve quickly on the call.
Wrap parties can run into the evening.

When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. Late-September shoots near Fortune Green lose the light at about 7:05pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.

- 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
- Let us know about tight access

What affects the price in Fortune Green
There’s no fixed price list, because every shoot is different. The main factors are:
- The date and time of year
- The number of people
- Crockery choices
- Which meats and sides you choose
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

- Anything the venue has asked for
- Where the event is
- Dietary requirements
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
