The weather is turning very icy now but Chef and Griddle is gearing up for another busy weekend and we will not let a bit of ice get in the way of our hog roasts.
We had an event on today at a farmers market who would like to supplement their organic vegetables with our free range organic pigs. We will also be cooking up some of the market’s organic potatoes in our roasting tray, to show off how superb they are when roasted in the pork juices. A few of the stall owners ended up asking if we could cook some of their vegetables as well and we did, with the results being fantastic. In the end the customers practically had a roast pork dinner with spit roasted pig, crackling, stuffing, apple sauce, potatoes , carrots , onions and fresh floured rolls. The meal went down perfectly, we tasted some of the roast organic vegetables and we must say they were absolutely amazing and will definitely be using them again for events in the area.
The event we have this weekend is for a wedding in Penzance, the couple have opted for our Alfresco Wedding Menu, this is a fantastic option for couples on a budget as it is less reliant on service but makes up for it with the price and the food you receive. This menu consists of whole roast pork and whole roast lamb served with all the trimmings, the couple will also receive three freshly made salads. Having two meats in this way is great foe taste as well as presentation as you can see both meats turning around and roasting whole. As I have mentioned before in these blogs lamb is a great meat for a sit down meal, especially when it is cooked like this.
This month has been one of the best yet for Chef and Griddle and we can definitely see the success continuing on into December and from there into the new year if you would like a hog roast in December I would definitely urge you to book now as we are almost full to bursting for the coming month.
