How we price a hog roast for the crew
The biggest factors are:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Time on site
- The date and time of year
- Access to the cooking area
Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Your date and serving time
- Roughly how many people
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Dietary requirements
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we will quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.
Planning the cooking 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
- Vehicle access to base
- A safe distance from kit
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

For planners, venues and organisers

For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
