EDDIE'S PORTABLE PIG-OUT:
PIG-ROAST PACKAGES TO LARGER CROWDS
PRICING PAGE
08/07/2011
This page specifically builds upon existing packages, but focuses on Pig Roast Packages/Pricing for Larger crowds (125ppl-225ppl). The Standard Pig Roast pricing pages are based on packages that can be run from *ONE* truck/trailer/crew, supporting crowds of around 125-150ppl max. . When the headcount swells, serious consideration must be given to having additional pig roasters/trailer/truck onsite. This forces another towing vehicle, a second trailer, more manpower, and an overall larger logistical footprint. Since jobs in the 125-225ppl range have been popping up more and more, I've decided to standardize some pricing. Larger jobs need to be custom built though. More discussion on jobs to "Very Large Headcounts" can be found HERE.
Please click over to the Standard Pig Roast pricing pages for additional pricing tweaks (Mileage Fees, Unusual Logistics, Holiday Upcharges, menu additions, Incliment Weather, and other fees and caveats.).

Hopefully this has given you a little insight into my pricing. This is meant to be a ballpark estimate only, a departure point for all pricing. I'll be happy to "sharpen the pencil" based on your unique situation. Sometimes, certain combos can lead to efficiencies that ultimately lower costs. The opposite is true, sometimes a simple addition can have a surprisingly large logistical impact. Please call me directly to discuss! 973 627-2722. You'll probably have to leave a message, so please be sure to leave your name, a phone number, headcount, desired date(s), location of event, and nature of your event.
[***HEADCOUNT APPROXIMATIONS vs POUNDAGE DISCLAIMER: We make NO guarantees whatsoever about how many people can be fed from any of our packages. Estimating this is basically a big guess!!! All headcount estimates listed here or anywhere on the website are APPROXIMATIONS, based on experience of running these packages to various sized crowds.. The numbers provided here are "for advice only". It is the Client's responsibility to order enough food for your guests. Other Host Provided Foods (appetizers, snacks, sides, desserts, etc.) plays a significant role in how much mileage we can get from the package you select. The demographics of your crowd influences this greatly too (Frat Boys or Dieters?). Also, the leanness of the pig can dramatically effect the edible yield, since the fat ends up being discarded. Sometimes a 100lb pig produces enough food so that leftovers are coming out of our ears, and sometimes the opposite is true. The pig's leanness is well beyond our control, so it's best to order more than you need. When selecting packages, please consider the following very rough calculations for food consumption: The average person can only eat one heaping plate of food per meal. That plate weighs approximately 1.5 to 1.75lbs.. Doing the math..a party of 65ppl should have approximately 114lbs of food total, a party of 85 should have approximately 123lbs total, and a party of 100 should have approximately 175lbs of food total. *Very* rough numbers here, but it's in the ballpark. Also consider that the packages are based on serving for a duration of roughly 1.5 hours of foodservice, the point where people usually have had their fill. The packages are not designed to provide enough food for continued service well into the wee hours of the morning. If you really want leftovers for this purpose, order more food!!!. My point in spelling all this out is to avoid the "worst case scenario" of running out of food too early. This makes our operation look bad, and embarrasses the host. The contrary situation isn't much better: Too much food creates unnecessary expenses, wasted energy, and leftover handling issues. It's never a bad idea to have some rapidly deployable foods in the event that people haven't been satisfied by the EPPO package you selected. Frozen Burger patties, Hot dogs, Chips, and other long shelf-life snacks can be a good backup solution to the unknowns....(please serve from a separate area)].
Thanks!
