- It starts with the date, venue and when people are expected.
- We confirm availability and send a price.
- We set up and roast while you’re at the service.
- Food is ready when people arrive.
- We clear away discreetly.

Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A safe distance from the hall
- A level outdoor area
- A short route for the equipment
What a hog roast costs
The price comes down to:
- Menu choices and extras
- How many people are eating
- Distance from us
- How easy it is to reach the spot
For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
