How we price a hog roast for your event
There’s no fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Whether you want china
- The number of people
- Time on site
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and time of the event
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- An estimate of numbers
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your event for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.
The process
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Underriver are dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
