Hog roast hire in Salford
Is a hog roast right for your event?
The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. That’s why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why us?
- All the equipment comes with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Carved to order by a chef
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

How our hog roast hire works in Salford
The smell of roasting pork is half the appeal. We roast slowly on site in Salford, then serve it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. For wedding breakfasts and evening food and work summer parties, we can cook salads, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes.
In a hamlet or village like Salford, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
