Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Give final numbers in good time
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten
- Note which guests don’t eat pork, for lamb, chicken or a vegetarian choice
If speeches overrun or the band starts late, we adjust. Just keep us informed.

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
There is no fixed price list, because every wedding is different. The main factors are:
- The number of people
- Crockery choices
- Season and day of the week
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- A photo of the cooking area
- Your date and serving time
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.

The process
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. In Jealott's Hill, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so evening food is often carved in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- Send us the date, venue and guest numbers.
- We confirm the date and the venue and send a price.
- We fit timings around your running order.
- We roast during the day, then carve at the agreed time.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we leave quietly.
How to prepare
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

DIY versus a catered hog roast
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.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
