What affects the price in Breach
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The journey to the venue
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Which meats and sides you choose
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Also in Breach
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to cold food, hot food is popular in any season. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Breach questions
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you come to a school fair in Breach?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
How do we prepare?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can you help with a fundraiser?
Let us know your plans, and we’ll suggest a way to make it work.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do we need our own staff?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
