What a hog roast costs

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • How long the roast and service take
  • The number of people
  • The journey to the venue
  • Plates or china

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. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • The venue or postcode
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • What the outdoor space is like
  • Which meats and sides you’d like

When you’re weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:

  • Ask the production office for dietary needs
  • Post allergen details at base
  • Count crew needing an alternative
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed

We follow location rules on vehicles and timings.

Sides make a proper lunch.

For planners, venues and organisers

Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

The process

Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. By late September, sunset near Welling is about 7:05pm, so plan lights for evening service.

  1. You send the location, date and lunch call.
  2. You get a check on access and a quote.
  3. We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
  4. We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
  5. We pack away straight after service.

Before we arrive

  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Questions from Welling

What if our house in Welling has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.

Could you cook in Danson Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.

Do you come to Welling?

We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.

Do you need power or water?

The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.

How long does a hog roast take to cook?

Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.

What paperwork do you provide?

Tell us what the production needs, and we will confirm what we can provide.

How much does a hog roast cost?

Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.

We do. Send us the details.
