What affects the price in Crampmoor
The biggest factors are:
- Distance from us
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Numbers
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 we need to know
Here’s what we will ask:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Your menu choices
- Rough numbers
- Where the event is
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or SO51 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Use our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Why choose a hog roast in Crampmoor?
Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds everyone at once, so nobody stands at a grill all afternoon. See our guide to hog roast or barbecue. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why Crampmoor hosts choose us
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
- Parking near the spot
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys 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 early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
