How we price a hog roast for the crew
Each price is built from:
- Season and day of the week
- Menu choices and extras
- Access to the cooking area
- The journey to the venue
Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What to tell us
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Allergies we should know about
- A photo of the cooking area
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- An estimate of numbers
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we will quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.
How it works
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In December, daylight in Winterbrook ends around 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after.
How to prepare
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
How to get a price

Winterbrook questions
Could you cook in Kinecroft?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is Winterbrook too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can you cater our wrap?
We do. Tell us the date and location.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your shoot for a quote.
Can you get to rural locations?
Send the location and access notes and we’ll plan the journey.
