At Hog Of The North, we know that a perfect hog roast isn’t just about throwing a pig on a spit and hoping for the best. It’s about precision, passion, and using the right tools to create that irresistibly crispy crackling and melt-in-the-mouth meat. So, what’s our secret to keeping it juicy and delicious? Stick around to find out!
Top-Quality Meat – The Foundation of a Great Hog Roast
All great meals start with great ingredients – and a hog roast isn’t any different. That’s why Hog Of The North is strict about using only the finest quality fresh meat, sourced for its superior flavour and texture. Our hogs are naturally rich in taste, which means they don’t need a cupboard full of spices to shine. Just a simple rub of salt on the scored skin is all it takes to produce golden, glass-like crackling that practically sings when you bite into it!
State-of-the-Art Hog Roasting Machines
While skill is essential, having the right equipment makes all the difference. At Hog Of The North, we use our own industry-leading hog roasting machines that ensure the perfect cooking conditions no matter the weather. Whether it’s a sweltering summer afternoon or a chilly winter evening, we can cook indoors or outdoors and achieve the same mouth-watering results every time. These machines lock in moisture while allowing the fat to render perfectly, ensuring every bite is juicy and bursting with flavour.
The Magic of Low and Slow Cooking
There’s no rushing perfection. Our expert chefs slow-roast each hog for hours on end, allowing the meat to become incredibly tender while the skin transforms into that signature crispy, golden crackling. The result? Meat that falls apart with the touch of a fork, packed with natural, smoky flavour and deliciously rich juices.
Waste Not, Want Not – Juicy, Flavour-Packed Stuffing
We don’t believe in letting any of those glorious, meaty juices go to waste. Instead, we use them to infuse our homemade sage and onion stuffing, creating a side dish so full of flavour that it’s just as much of a star as the pork itself. This stuffing is soft, savoury, and utterly delicious, making it the perfect accompaniment to our legendary hog roasts.
