Should I cook it myself?
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.
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.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. Our guide compares the two.

How we price a hog roast
The price comes down to:

- Whether you want china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
