Planning the cooking spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Any venue rules sorted in advance

Step by step
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In Broom Street, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is usually in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. Buffets can sit out for hours. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Prices and what affects them
Each price is built from:
- Plates or china
- The date and time of year
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- How long the roast and service take
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Any venue rules
- Your date and serving time
- Allergies we should know about
- The address or postcode
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
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 is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
