Hog roast hire in North End, carved to order
Booking a hog roast means you don’t have to cook. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, ready to carve when you are. For sports clubs and societies and weddings, day or evening, we can cook hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and new potatoes for your guests.
Gardens in North End tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so clearance from fences and windows matters most. Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours.

Should I cook it myself?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

- Whether plates or china are included
- How they handle allergens and dietary needs
- When they arrive and when the food will be ready
- Where the roaster goes and what it needs
Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
Name someone to meet us, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice.
What a hog roast costs
The price comes down to:
- Menu choices and extras
- Distance from us
- How many people are eating
- How easy it is to reach the spot
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.
What happens on the day
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Planning an evening hog roast in North End? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
