Are you planning a party in Skipton, Burnley, or Warrington? Nothing brings guests together like a slow-roasted hog feast.
At Country Hog Roast, we have provided fresh, locally sourced hog roast and BBQ catering across Lancashire, Yorkshire, and the wider UK since 2008. If you are currently searching for hog roast hire near me or trying to figure out your event catering options, here is a complete guide to our menus, coverage, and costs.
What Does Hog Roast Catering Cost?
One of the most frequent questions we get asked by event organizers is: “How much would it cost to hire a hog roast?”
Pricing generally depends on your total guest count, venue location, and whether you want a basic party buffet or a full, multi-course wedding package. To give you a clear baseline for budgeting, here is how our main catering tiers compare:
| Menu Package | Included Food & Service | Ideal Event Type | Estimated Starting Cost |
| Bronze Package | Whole slow-roasted hog, soft bakery rolls, homemade sage & onion stuffing, crisp crackling, apple sauce, and disposable crockery. | Casual parties, birthdays, evening wedding food | From £9.50 per person (min. 80 guests) |
| Silver Package | Everything in Bronze + your choice of 3 fresh, vibrant side salads or warm sides. | Anniversaries, corporate lunches, formal parties | From £14.50 per person (min. 100 guests) |
| Gold Package | Everything in Silver + a selection of handmade desserts and full buffet service. | High-end celebrations, charity galas | From £17.50 per person (min. 100 guests) |
| Wedding Catering | Grazing boards on arrival, main hog roast feast, gourmet sides, desserts & cake cutting. | Full wedding day catering | From £22.00 per person (min. 100 guests) |

More Than Just Pork: BBQ Catering & Dietary Alternatives
While a traditional hog roast in Colne or Burnley is our signature service, we offer flexible menu choices to ensure every single guest leaves satisfied:
- BBQ Catering : Freshly griddled burgers, pork sausages, marinated chicken breast, and grilled skewers served alongside vibrant seasonal salads.
- Grazing & Antipasti Platters: Italian cured meats, cheeses, artisan breads, and fruits—ideal for afternoon wedding arrivals or evening receptions.
- Vegetarian & Vegan Options: Delicious meat-free alternatives (such as grilled halloumi kebabs or vegan sausages) prepared separately so no one misses out on the feast.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to prepare and cook a hog roast on-site?
A whole hog is slowly cooked for hours—often overnight or starting early in the morning. We arrive at your venue roughly 3 to 4 hours prior to your serving time to set up our stainless-steel roasting equipment and begin final preparation.
What happens if it rains on the day of my outdoor event?
Very little stops a hog roast! Our roasting units operate under our commercial-grade gazebos; therefore, we can cook and serve guests smoothly in any weather.
How many guests can a single whole hog feed?
A single whole pig comfortably feeds 80 to 200+ guests, depending on portion sizes and whether additional salads, sides, or desserts are included on the menu.
