Last minute cancellations

We are increasingly hearing from angry and disappointed enquirers that the hog roast company in the Cotswolds they have booked for their special occasion has let them down – often at the last minute. This is all too often a part timer who has more than likely received a more lucrative job. This is a sad reflection on the calibre of some of the operatives currently supplying hog roasts. Choose a company that you can trust will turn up.

The size of the hog and portion sizes

This is always a difficult one and one that is often not apparent till guests are actually being served at the particular event in the Cotswolds – which may be too late! Remember, ‘You get what you pay for’. As an example, the size of a hog suitable for feeding say 100 guests can often vary depending on who you use and how much you pay. For instance, when serving industry normal standard portions of around 6oz to 8oz of meat per portion, you would need a hog of approximately 42 kg dead weight (the weight of the hog oven prepared). To get your business, some hog roasters may tend to serve smaller portions and hence will only need a smaller hog, of say 30 kg  This could make them cheaper when comparing prices for feeding your 100 guests. Not many of the cheap hog roasters will state the weight of the hog they will use for your special event. To avoid possible disappointment on the day, if you are comparing market prices, it is imperative you compare ‘like’ with ‘like’ and ask potential hog roasters what weight of hog they would use.

Any seconds?

Yet again, you get what you pay for. If you are looking to pay next to nothing for your hog roast – you’ll probably receive just that. Worse still, there might actually not even be enough for firsts!
