The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Winter afternoons in Cackle Street are short, with sunset at about 3:55pm, so winter hog roast days are best kept to lunchtime.

- You get a clear price.
- We cook in the grounds.
- Food goes out on plates.
- We leave the grounds tidy.
Preparing for the day
