Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
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.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved, and nothing sits out all afternoon. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

How we price a hog roast for your party
The price comes down to:
- Access to the cooking area
- Whether you want china
- Season and day of the week
- The number of people
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Getting an accurate quote
To check the date and the space, tell us:
- An estimate of numbers
- Your date and serving time
- Your menu choices

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

After a christening at a church like Saint Mary's, a hog roast in the garden is an easy way to feed family and friends. If you had Rockstone Place Park in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we cannot simply set up a roaster in a public park. The New Forest National Park is within about 8 miles of Inner Avenue, so a garden party here comes with a lovely backdrop. The coast is within about 2 miles, so breezy days are common, so we plan a sheltered spot.
