Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to grilling to order, one roast serves everyone together. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why Nunhead hosts choose us
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Carved to order by a chef
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Prices and what affects them
Here’s what affects the price:
- The date and time of year
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Distance from us
- How easy it is to reach the spot
The main driver is numbers: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

- Approval from locations
