How to compare hog roast caterers

Full catering or machine hire?

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

The menu, dish by dish

Crackling

Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we will bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.

Prices and what affects them

The biggest factors are:

  • The date and time of year
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • The number of people
  • Whether you want china

The main driver is numbers: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

What we need to know

To check the date and the space, tell us:

  • Dietary requirements
  • The address or postcode
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Your menu choices

We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: fill in our quote form.

How it works

Here’s how the day typically runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Streat are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.

  1. You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
  2. We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
  3. We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
  4. We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
  5. We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.

Before we arrive

  • Name a contact for the day
  • Think about shelter for your visitors
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
