Hog Roast
In 1996 we started a Hog roast catering service; we believe we were the first in the North West.
A Hog roast is basically a whole roasted pig; there are two methods to cook a pig.
1. On a spit.
2. In a large roasting tray.
I choose to cook my pigs in a large roasting tray in a mobile oven. The advantages are; there are handles that fit on to the roasting tray so I can carry the cooked pig in doors even up stairs and down narrow pathways in to back gardens etc. We can cook over things with the pig like jacket potatoes and sausages. The main advantage is I am not restricted to summer months.
When a pig is cooked on a spit it is too heavily butchered and looks more like a large pork joint, where as ours are unmistakeably a pig. We leave the head on unless requested to remove it, although we have only had one removed out of the hundreds of pigs we have cooked.
We cater for a minimum of a hundred people, and only do private parties, by that I mean I do not sell sandwiches at public events.
We have 4 menus to choose from which are fully adaptable, and cover a large area. All we require from you is 2 tables to serve from and of course hungry guests .We leave your party tidy just as we found it.
