How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. By about 3:55pm in late December, Silverhill is dark. Evening Christmas parties need a well-lit carving station.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a traditional sit-down Christmas lunch, a hog roast is more relaxed. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why book with us
- Planned to your running order
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- We bring everything to cook and serve
Read our prices page or our hog roast cost guide.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Collect dietary needs with Christmas party sign-ups
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark, and we’ll plan it with you.
Add roast turkey for a traditional Christmas touch.

Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The journey to the venue
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The number of people
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Getting an accurate quote
To get the best quote, send us:
- Your menu choices
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture

- Rough numbers
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Tell us about your Christmas party for a quote: use our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Flat ground outside, with lights for after dark
- A firm surface, as winter grass can be soft
- A safe distance from anything that could catch the heat
