A hog roast or other catering?
Next to volunteers cooking, a professional hog roast frees up your helpers. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why book with us
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Served at the time you choose
Take a look at how we price or our hog roast cost guide.
Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Balance the food line-up
- Halal is not offered
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
Name an organiser to meet us, especially for big events.
Chicken widens the choice.
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Time on site
- The number of people
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Details that help
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- Dietary requirements
- Which meats and sides you’d like

- Your date and serving time
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. Use our quote form.
What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power. In late May, sunset in Bledington is about 9:00pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:30pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
Getting a price
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
