About our hog roast hire in Bierley
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that is hog roast hire in Bierley. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, with sides and extras to choose from. Typical bookings include staff days and open days and Fêtes, fairs and shows, serving new potatoes, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls.
In a small place like Bierley, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Questions from Bierley
Do you come out to small places like Bierley?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you roast near the sea around Bierley?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Is it just pork?
It is built around the hog, with lamb and chicken as extras.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
How does hog roast hire work?
You choose the date, the menu and the serving time; we do the rest. All we need is a place to cook outdoors.
How it works
Expect a calm, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. Light matters for a long roast: around Bierley, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 4:00pm.

Looking after everyone
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice, priced in the quote.
Full catering or machine hire?

Is a hog roast right for your event?
