For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to grilling to order, carving is quicker for big numbers. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

Planning for dietary needs

- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
- Request gluten-free rolls
We arrive early and set up at base, roasting through the morning.
