Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a full location catering unit, a hog roast suits single days and smaller crews. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What you get with us
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Carved to order by a chef
- All the equipment comes with us

What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Crockery choices
- Distance from us
- How long the roast and service take
- Access to the cooking area
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Tell us who does not eat pork
When lunch is called, we carve fast.
