Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
What affects the price in Leamouth
Things that change the price:
- Plates or china
- Time on site
- Travel to Leamouth
- Numbers
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Is a hog roast right for your shoot?
Next to a full location catering unit, a hog roast is simpler and suits smaller shoots and one-off days. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

Before you choose a spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Access agreed with locations
- Away from vehicles and equipment
