SPIT ROAST

How we started and how we got our name.

Whether it is for 100 or 15000, when it comes to cooking lambs and pigs no one has as good a visual impact as The Whole Hog. Our equipment is unique, designed and used exclusively by The Whole Hog. Most other companies use spit-roast ovens in which the hog/lamb is not visible until cooked and raised out of the oven. With our ovens the hog/lamb is completely visible throughout the entire cooking process, giving maximum impact with the minimum of fuss. All spit-roasts are cooked from fresh on site. Although we have oven capacity for over 7000 guests we would still be happy to quote for a single hog roast.

The hog roast is an impressive site when cooking, golden brown and covered in crackling giving visual impact coupled with delicious food . A whole pig takes approx. 5 hours to roast. When the buffet is ready to serve a suitably attired chef begins carving with all the ceremony it requires. The pork to be served with an accompaniment of applesauce, stuffing and optional course grain mustard gravy together with fresh bread or rolls.
This can be part of an overall buffet. See FOOD for a selection of salads

For use inside or out, our ovens are portable and can go almost anywhere. They do not give off any obnoxious fumes or smoke and have even been used in English Heritage Buildings.

As well as our uniquely designed ovens we have also recently imported charcoal spit roasts from South Africa. These are superb for cooking lamb especially when sprigged with fresh rosemary and garlic.
