How we price a hog roast for the wake
We work out each quote from:
- Time on site
- Crockery choices
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Site access
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
What we need to know

- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The venue or postcode
- What the outdoor space is like

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Rather than relatives cooking, we take the cooking off the family’s hands. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Why us?
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Served at the time you choose
- An itemised quote

Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Check with family about dietary needs
- Older guests may prefer food on plates
Food is served as everyone gathers, calmly and without fuss.
Let us know if there’s something the person especially liked.
Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
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.
What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children generally like it too.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Planning the cooking spot
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- A level spot outdoors for the roaster
- Parking close by for our vehicle
- Permission from the hall or venue
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.
