- The menu, including sides and any extras
- Plates, china and cutlery
- Allergen information for every dish
What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- Distance from us
- Whether you want china
- Time on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Details that help
When you contact us, it helps to include:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Roughly how many people
- Allergies we should know about

What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
For event organisers in SW1V
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Put the menu on the invitation
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
SW1V: your questions answered
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Do you cook it or do we?
We offer full catering and DIY machine hire. We’ll explain what’s included in each when we quote.
How does hog roast hire work?
We roast on site, carve to order and serve, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Do we need a big space?
Frequently, yes, if there’s a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. Send us a picture.
