What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- Parking close to the house
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- The number of people
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- The date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Your menu choices
- The address or postcode
- Allergies we should know about
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Send us your date for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
We get there early to start the roast, so it’s cooking when guests arrive.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
Should I cook it myself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
