The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
For a wrap party, it’s a relaxed way to finish. 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.
Why book our hog roast in Two Mile Ash

What a hog roast costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Crockery choices
- The number of people
- Travel to Two Mile Ash
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
