Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
What affects the price in Haggerston
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Access to the cooking area
- The journey to the venue
- The number of people
- Menu choices and extras
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What to tell us
When you contact us, it helps to include:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Where the event is
- The date and time of the event
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.

What we serve, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. At a December wedding in Haggerston, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the hog roast needs lighting.
- You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it’s the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
- We check the venue’s rules and the date, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking spot are agreed with you and the venue coordinator.
- We roast during the ceremony and drinks, then carve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we tidy our area and leave you to the party.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Have a level outdoor spot ready

A hog roast or other catering?
If your venue has an in-house caterer, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. There may be a fee. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
