What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Season and day of the week
- Travel to Wooburn
- Access to the cooking area
- Numbers
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What we need to know
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Rough numbers
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The date and time of the event
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Send us your details through our quote form.
Film set catering in Wooburn, slow-roasted on site

- A named contact at base
- Somewhere for crew to eat if it rains

For event organisers in Wooburn
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
How it works
Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. In December, daylight in Wooburn ends around 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after service.
How to prepare
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Name a contact for the day
