How we price a hog roast for your party

The price comes down to:

  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • The number of people
  • How long the roast and service take
  • The date and time of year

Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.

What to tell us

These are the details we need:

  • The date and time of the event
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Roughly how many people
  • Which meats and sides you’d like

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. Use our quote form.

Why choose a hog roast in Tillington?

Instead of booking a restaurant, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. 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. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Why book our hog roast in Tillington

  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow
  • Timed around your day

Take a look at how we price or the cost guide.

Should I cook it myself?

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Allergies and dietary needs

We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:

  • Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them

We get there early to start the roast, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.

A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.

What happens on the day

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. Evening parties in Tillington need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.

  1. Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
  2. We check the space and send a price.
  3. We arrive early and get the roast going.
  4. At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
  5. We tidy up and pack away.

Before we arrive

  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Send final numbers in good time
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

Planners, venues and businesses

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.

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.

  • Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
  • Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
