How we price a hog roast
The biggest factors are:
- Season and day of the week
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Time on site
- Plates or china
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the event is
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Find out who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
Why choose a hog roast in Honor Oak?

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
