How the day works
Here’s how the day typically runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. By about 3:50pm in late December, Longfield Hill is dark. A Christmas party in the evening means carving under lights, and a lit path from the door.
