What a hog roast costs
We do not use a fixed price list, because every shoot is different. What matters most:
- Whether you want china
- Access to the cooking area
- Season and day of the week
- Which meats and sides you choose
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
What to tell us
To check the date and the space, tell us:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture

- Any venue rules
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A level spot at base for the roaster
- A contact in production
- A safe distance from kit
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
