How our wedding hog roast works in Silver Hill
A hog roast suits relaxed weddings in Silver Hill: generous, hearty food carved in front of your guests. We serve and tidy up, so you can enjoy it. Popular choices include new potatoes, spit-roast lamb and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for farm weddings and evening receptions.
There is something special about a country wedding near Silver Hill, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan firm ground and a route for our vehicle. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Planning the cooking spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A route to wheel equipment to the spot
- A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
- Light near the carving station after dark
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Step by step
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. In Silver Hill, midsummer sunset is about 9:15pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:00pm, which means an evening hog roast is normally served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
