How we price a hog roast
Things that change the price:
- Numbers
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel to Cambridge Heath
- Site access
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What we need to know
To get the best quote, send us:
- Your menu choices
- Dietary requirements
- Anything the venue has asked for
- What the outdoor space is like
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.
The process
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Cambridge Heath, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

About the food
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.
Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
We’ll be with you for a good part of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal, and they’re listed in your quote.
Cambridge Heath: your questions answered
Could you cook in Haggerston Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.
We’re gathering after a service at St James-the-Less: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will confirm the space with your quote.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Access and clearance matter more than size. Describe the space and we will tell you honestly.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?
Either: we can cater fully or hire out the machine. Catering is the most popular choice.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls 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
