Prices and what affects them
Things that change the price:
- The date and time of year

DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Why choose hog roast for events in Mundy Bois?
It is the stall people find by following their noses.
We are regularly asked to cater a wide mix of occasions near Mundy Bois, including:
- Country shows
- Village fêtes
- Town and village days
- Festivals
For a church fête or fundraiser, at a church such as Church of St James, a hog roast adds hot food to the cakes and tombola.
What your quote should include
- Plates, china and cutlery
- Exactly what’s included in the price

- When they arrive and when the food will be ready
Working with your venue
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Is a hog roast right for your event?

Can you do a school fair?
School fairs suit a hog roast. Check vehicle access with the school.

Is mains power needed?
