Step by step
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and winter daylight in Liphook ends around 4:00pm, so we may set up under lights.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- We check access to base and quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about tight access
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
