A chilly start to the day today temperatures of minus 4. We are off to Clitheroe bright and early to do a hog roast in the grounds of the castle for a local company Sign and Design. They want us to spit roast the pig on site and be ready to start serving by lunchtime so its been an early chilly start. It is only 5am and we are already on site cooking. We are currently all gathered around the hog roast machine keeping warm. We have not done a hog roast in Clitheroe for a couple of years so it will be good to catch up with a few people we have not seen for a while. We are doing the hog today with sausages from Cowmans the butchers, always a treat these sausages and Cowmans have won many awards for their sausages. If you have time check out their website http://www.cowmans.co.uk/ the shop is well worth a visit, the guys start early every day we are off down there at 6 to pick up the sausages, I hope they have the kettle on. Along side the hog and sausages we are also doing piping hot jacket potatoes, whilst a great option for any vegetarian they are also just a very welcome site on a chilly January day.
