Step by step
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Silver Hill are dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Questions from Silver Hill
How far is Silver Hill from London?
Roughly 42 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you come to a school fair in Silver Hill?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Is it pay as you go?
It depends on how your event works. Tell us what you have in mind and we will discuss the options.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to volunteers cooking, a professional hog roast frees up your helpers. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Planning the cooking spot
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- Space for people to queue
- Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
- Any paperwork the organisers need
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
