What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- Site access
- Time on site
- Whether you want china
- The number of people
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
A hog roast or other catering?
Where residents need modified meals, the kitchen prepares their portions while others enjoy the roast. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

How the day works
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. In summer, Brighton has daylight until about 9:15pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime event is better.

- We send a quote.
- We cook in the grounds.
- Food goes out on plates.
- We leave the grounds tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
