How we price a hog roast
Things that change the price:
- The journey to the venue
- Access to the cooking area
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Which meats and sides you choose
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
To check the date and the space, we will need:
- A photo of the cooking area
- Your date and serving time
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Any venue rules
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it is easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.
How it works
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Evenings in Peckham Bush stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:00pm; once it is dark, we need light at the carving station.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We check the space and quote.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know about tight access
- Name a contact for the day

Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Does the roaster have to be outside?

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. A buffet can sit out all afternoon. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups usually cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why us?
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Our staff serve and clear

For event organisers in Peckham Bush
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Full catering or machine hire?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
