How to compare hog roast caterers

Hog roast hire in Sewardstonebury, carved to order

With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it’s served. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. Typical bookings include wakes and memorial gatherings and wedding breakfasts and evening food, with rotisserie chicken, coleslaw and halloumi skewers.

Around Sewardstonebury, most London bookings are in back gardens, yards, school grounds and car parks. If there is no side passage, a rear gate, yard or communal space may work, and a photo helps us check. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

A hog roast or other catering?

Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which frequently makes it better value. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • We bring everything to cook and serve
  • Choices for people who do not eat pork
  • Staff to serve, so you do not have to
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

Take a look at how we price or our hog roast cost guide.

Catered or do it yourself?

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.

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

How we price a hog roast

Your quote depends on:

  • The date and time of year
  • The number of people
  • Plates or china
  • The journey to the venue

Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

Step by step

Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. Light matters for a long roast: around Sewardstonebury, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:50pm.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
  3. On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and start roasting.
  4. We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
  5. Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.

Before we arrive
