Step by step
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. After-work summer events in Elham have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer and 8:45pm in late May, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. By late September, sunset is around 7:00pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check site access and send a price.
- On the day we set up and roast through the morning.

- Afterwards we clear up and go.
