Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

How we price a hog roast for your party
Things that change the price:
- Menu choices and extras
- Time on site
- The number of people
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
To check the date and the space, we will need:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Allergies we should know about
- What the outdoor space is like
- Anything the venue has asked for
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the party is and roughly how many. A picture of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
How it works
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. A summer party in Hell Corner stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
- You tell us the date, your address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- When it is time to eat, the chef carves and we serve.
- We pack away and leave the garden tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Planning for dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
Have a word with the neighbours first: roasting takes hours and the smell travels, and they may ask for a roll.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
