Planning help
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwiches from a shop, a hot hog roast keeps morale up. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why Teynham Street hosts choose us
- Planned to your running order
- A choice of salads and potatoes

How we price a hog roast for the crew
The price comes down to:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The date and time of year
- Plates or china
- The serving time and how long we are on site
The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Getting an accurate quote
To get the best quote, send us:

For a quote, send us a few details: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Use our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A named contact at base
- The location manager’s agreement
- Clearance from trucks, kit and trees
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
