How we price a hog roast for your party
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The date and time of year
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Distance from us
- Plates or china
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What to tell us
For a quick, accurate price, tell us:
- A picture of the cooking area
- The address or postcode
- Allergies we should know about
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. By late September, sunset in Ashington is about 7:05pm; by December it is about 3:55pm. Plan lights for the path and the food.

Working with your venue
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.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can bring everything through.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.

What if it rains?

Yes, and tell us how many children are coming, so we get the amounts right.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
