For event organisers in Wingham Well
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
What a hog roast costs
The price comes down to:
- Whether you want china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of people
- The serving time and how long we are on site
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups normally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Roughly how many people
- A photo of the cooking area
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: send us your details through our quote form.
A hog roast or other catering?
If your venue does its own catering, check whether you can bring in a hog roast. There may be a fee. 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.
Why us?
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Timed around your day
- Carved to order by a chef
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Confirm final numbers a week or so before
- Give your coordinator the final menu
- Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
We’re on site for much of the day, working quietly in the background.
Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.
