Prices and what affects them
There is no fixed price list, because every shoot is different. The main factors are:
- How long the roast and service take
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Season and day of the week
- Access to the cooking area
For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
