How our Christmas hog roast works in Silver Street
At a Christmas fair or lights switch-on in Silver Street, a hog roast draws a queue: hot food in the hand on a cold evening. Typical bookings include between-Christmas-and-New-Year get-togethers and staff Christmas do’s, serving crackling, halloumi skewers and roast turkey.
In a small place like Silver Street, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve.
Step by step
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. With sunset at about 3:50pm in December, most Christmas parties in Silver Street are after dark. We bring lighting for the cooking area; tell us about lighting on the way to it.
- Ask early for a December date.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
- We serve hot rolls and turkey if you’ve chosen it.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Before we arrive
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Silver Street questions
Is Silver Street too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Could you cook in Cromers Wood?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What about Christmas markets?
We do Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons. Tell us the pitch and how food will be paid for.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Is lighting needed?
After dark, the serving area and the path to it need lighting. Tell us what’s already there and we’ll plan the rest with you.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
