What a hog roast costs
Your quote depends on:
- Access to the cooking area
- The date and time of year
- The number of people
- Whether you want china
Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address for an accurate figure.
Details that help
Here’s what we will ask:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- A photo of the cooking area
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Allergies we should know about
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Balance the food line-up
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Make the stall easy to find
- Halal isn’t offered
If the ground is soft, we will need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.
Coleslaw goes well with pork rolls.

How it works
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. For an autumn event in Finmere, sunset is around 7:10pm in late September, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We pack down and take our waste.
How to prepare
- Send final numbers in good time
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
How to get a price
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: use our quote form.
