How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Wierton are dark by about 3:50pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know about tight access
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
Getting a price
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A photo of the cooking area helps. Use our quote form.

How we price a hog roast for your event
Things that change the price:
- Crockery choices
- Site access
- Numbers
- Time on site
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Details that help
When you enquire, please mention:
- Rough numbers
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The date and time of the event
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
