A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children normally like it too.
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Step by step
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. In December, Offington is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We tidy the pitch.
How to prepare
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Let us know about tight access
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
