Prices and what affects them
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The journey to the venue
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Crockery choices
- The number of people
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:
- The address or postcode
- Rough numbers
- Anything the venue has asked for
- What the outdoor space is like
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your shoot: use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We arrive early and set up at base, roasting through the morning.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.

Working with your venue

- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
