How we price a hog roast
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The date and time of year
- Crockery choices
- How long the roast and service take
- Distance from us
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Getting an accurate quote
To get the best quote, tell us:
- A photo of the cooking area
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many people
- Which meats and sides you’d like
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Fill in our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
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.
Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
