How our Christmas hog roast works in Upperton
On a cold December night, hot pork and crackling are hard to beat. We roast outdoors under cover and we carve hot for your festive party in Upperton. We serve crackling, roast potatoes and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for society Christmas socials and winter fairs and markets.
In winter near Upperton, we need firm ground and light. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
