Hog & Spit Roast prices 2012
- Free range Blythburgh hog roasts.
- Local salt marsh lambs and organic beef.
- All our pigs and lambs are reared in Essex or Suffolk.
- Baps are day fresh from our baker.
- Our carvers all have RIPH hygiene certificates.
- We have full public liability insurance.
The hog roast takes on average seven hours to cook. Our chef/carvers oversee the final two hours cooking on site, so the pig, or lamb, is perfectly cooked when chef begins carving. After serving he won't rush off, but waits until everyone has eaten their fill, including seconds. If there is any roast remaining he will carve that onto your own platters for your guests to enjoy later.
Please be aware that the hog roast ovens measure 120 cms x 68 cms, they don't go through a regular front door to access a back garden, side access is needed, and they're heavy, so no more than a couple of steps please!
