Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which typically keeps the cost down. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
