Hog roast hire in Berrick Salome, carved to order
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, for hours, under a gazebo outside. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. For corporate events and milestone birthdays, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, rotisserie chicken and spit-roast lamb.
For a rural spot like Berrick Salome, a hog roast feels right at home. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.

How the day works
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Late September evenings in Berrick Salome lose the light at about 7:10pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Getting ready for the day

What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

A hog roast or other catering?
Full catering or machine hire? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
