How we price a hog roast for the crew
Here’s what affects the price:
- How long the roast and service take
- The journey to the venue
- The number of people
- Which meats and sides you choose
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What we serve, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which suits bigger events.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal.
Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled

- Tell us who does not eat pork

When lunch is called, we carve fast.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with ordering in, we are already there when lunch is called. 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 you get with us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Timed around your day
- Crackling for everyone who wants it

Questions from Jericho
Which station is closest to Jericho?
The closest is Oxford station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Could you cook in Oxford University Parks?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Can you set up at the unit base?
Not much: a level area at base, agreed with locations.
What about crew who do not eat pork?
Add alternatives to suit your crew.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: use our quote form.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
