How the day works
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. In Marsh Green, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 4:05pm in December, we need light to carve.

What a hog roast costs
Things that change the price:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The journey to the venue
- Plates or china
- Time on site
Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- A photo of the cooking area
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Every party is quoted on its own, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your party: use our quote form.
Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
Marsh Green questions
We’re gathering after a service at St. Mary's Church: can you cater?
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. Send us the address.
Is Marsh Green too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We tidy the serving area, so there’s very little washing up.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?
Often, yes, if there is a level spot away from the house and trees, and a way to wheel the equipment through. A picture helps.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Why choose party hog roast in Marsh Green?
It suits all ages, from grandparents to toddlers.

Planning the cooking spot

- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A step-free way into the garden
For somewhere as remote as Marsh Green, early notice helps us plan the trip.
