Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.

The process
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. After-work summer events in Monkton have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer and 8:45pm in late May, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:00pm.
