Around Allbrook, a garden with room to spare is all you need. A hog roast fits right in. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Planning the cooking spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- A word with the neighbours
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

What a hog roast costs
Here’s what affects the price:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Menu choices and extras
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Distance from us
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Details that help
When you enquire, please mention:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- The address or postcode
- An estimate of numbers
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Fill in our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is 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.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a restaurant booking, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why Allbrook hosts choose us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Served at the time you choose
- Choices for people who do not eat pork

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We get there early to start the roast, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
