What a hog roast costs
Your quote depends on:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Site access
- The number of people
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

- Where the event is
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

Hog roast hire in Adisham, carved to order
It is a simple format that suits most crowds: pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a roll, and alternatives for anyone who doesn’t eat pork. For birthdays and anniversaries and gatherings after a funeral, we can cook hog roast rolls, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes for your guests.
In a rural place like Adisham, roast pork in a field is hard to beat. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
Space, access and the venue
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Why choose a hog roast in Adisham?
A hog roast has one downside: it is pork. That’s why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

FAQs for Adisham
Is Adisham too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Is mains power needed?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
What’s the price?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your event for a quote.
Planners, venues and businesses
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
