How we price a hog roast
The biggest factors are:

- 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 are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

When you enquire, please mention:
- Any venue rules
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Which meats and sides you’d like

Is a hog roast right for your event?
The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why us?
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Planned to your running order
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests

Organising for someone else?
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Light matters for a long roast: around Wolverton, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Before we arrive
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
How to get a price
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
