Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Hog roast hire for your event in Berwick
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, which means it’s carved hot, with crisp crackling. Add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options if you like. We serve halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and salads, and typical bookings are for weddings, day or evening and sports clubs and societies.
Somewhere as small as Berwick, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Your questions about a hog roast in Berwick
Is Berwick too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
We’re gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
It’s built around the hog, but lamb and chicken can be added.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do you serve the crackling?
Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.
What is hog roast hire?
You choose the date, the menu and the serving time; we do the rest. All we need is a place to cook outdoors.

What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Crockery choices
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Site access
- Which meats and sides you choose
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Allergies we should know about
- The venue or postcode
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.
How the day works
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Berwick, it stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Why choose a hog roast in Berwick?
The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. That is why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option for anyone who does not eat it. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
