Do we need our own staff?

About the food
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Think about children’s portions
Warn the neighbours: roasting takes hours and the smell travels, and they may ask for a roll.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
What affects the price in Berrick Salome
The price comes down to:
- How long the roast and service take
- The journey to the venue
- Access to the cooking area
- The number of people
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
