What affects the price in Stick Hill

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Instead of booking a restaurant, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why book our hog roast in Stick Hill
- Timed around your day
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
