What a hog roast costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- The number of people
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The date and time of year
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
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. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Any venue rules
- Roughly how many people
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The venue or postcode
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your wedding: send us your details through our quote form.
For event organisers in Great Coxwell
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
Full catering or machine hire?
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.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power. Winter weddings in Great Coxwell are dark by about 4:00pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:30pm.
