Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.
How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. Because the roast starts early, and in December East Wittering is dark by about 4:00pm.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact for the day
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
