Hog and spit roast caterers
The popularity of the hog roast over the past three years has far excided our expectations and has even expanded into the winter months with Christmas party's and Christmas markets in December.
We now have six roasting machines each machine is capable of cooking a 85k pig producing around 200 portions of meat.
The most popular option we provide is hot roast pork in a bun with the choice of stuffing or apple sauce another option is a different choice of meat either: beef, turkey, lamb or chicken.
About our hog and spit roast machines
One of the most common question people ask me is "whats the difference between a hog roast and a spit roast" ? - the answer is:
A hog roast is where the pig is lying in a tray see photo 1
A spit roast is where the pig is attached to a spit (metal bar) and it rotates see photo 2
Our machines are made from stainless steel and are 4ft long 1.5ft wide they have large pneumatic tyres enabling them to handle any surface and can be used indoor or outdoor.
Each machine is CE approved and has two stainless steel burners that use propane gas that only gives off heat not smoke (unlike other machines)
When the cooking process is complete (8 hours cooking time for a 65k pig) the doors are removed and the hog is raised up so the chef can easily cut the meat and guests can view the hog as it is carved.
Each machine has it's own gas certificate and is serviced every year. Our machines are used regularly and are replaced every two years.
