- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
Tell us about ground conditions, particularly in wet weather.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
Step by step
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. In late May, sunset in Broom Hill is about 8:50pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:20pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
Getting a price
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the event is and roughly how many. A picture of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
How we price a hog roast for your event
We work out each quote from:
- Whether you want china
- Menu choices and extras
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- How many people are eating
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
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Roughly how many people
- The address or postcode
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
Common questions in Broom Hill
Do you trade at school fairs around Broom Hill?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
What if our house in Broom Hill has no side access?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
