Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Whether you want china
- Distance from us
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

- Allergies we should know about

A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.

Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- A serving area close to where guests eat
- Lighting for evening service
- A route to wheel equipment to the spot

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Common questions in Broad Oak
Do you come out to small places like Broad Oak?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
We are gathering after a service at Ebenezer Chapel: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Lamb and chicken are both available as a second option.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
Check with the venue first: some welcome outside caterers, others do not. We’ll talk to them about the cooking spot.
Can you cook inside the marquee?
The roaster stays outdoors on level ground.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
