Frequently Asked Questions

How many people does one hog feed?

A standard hog (approximately 50-60kg) will comfortably feed 100-120 people with generous portions. For larger events, we can roast multiple hogs.

How much space do you need?

We need approximately 3m x 3m of outdoor space for the hog roast machine. We can work in gardens, marquees, car parks, fields, or any outdoor venue with level ground.

What if it rains?

Our hog roast machines are designed to work in all weather conditions. We also offer marquee hire as part of our complete event service to keep guests dry in cooler months and bad weather.

How long does it take to cook?

A whole hog can take 12-18 hours to roast to perfection.

Is the smell strong?

The aroma of roasting pork is part of the experience! Most clients love the delicious smell that builds anticipation. However, we can position the roast away from main seating areas if preferred.

Can you cater for vegetarians?

Absolutely. We always provide vegetarian alternatives as standard, including grilled halloumi, veggie burgers, or roasted vegetable options. Just let us know numbers when booking.

What's your minimum guest number?

We can cater for events from 30 guests upwards. For smaller gatherings, we also recommend our BBQ catering or pizza options which may be more suitable.

How far in advance should we book?

For peak season (May-September), we recommend booking 6-12 months in advance, especially for weekend weddings. However, we can accommodate last-minute bookings with just 24 hours' notice, subject to availability.
