SPECIALISTS IN HOG, LAMB AND SPIT ROAST CATERING

Hog roasts are our speciality and we pride ourselves on the quality of what we offer.

Our skills not only include the ability to roast a hog to perfection. We have al fresco dining and barbeques in our veins. . As importers of Portuguese speciality foods we wanted to offer some of the specialities and dining experiences that Portugal has to offer. We started to do barbeques offering loins of pork, chicken piri piri, sardine "festas" parties and flaming chourico bbq's, we progressed to another speciality from the North of Portugal. The suckling pig of Bairrada "Leitao da Bairrada". Although a suckling pig is obviously not going to feed a party of 100 or more. So we developed the technique and recipe used to make the Bairrada Leitao so delicious and applied it to a larger free range pig. The best pigs we found for this are bred by Alistair and Jimmy Butler at Blythburgh Farm in Suffolk - www.freerangepork.co.uk

Founded in 2004 in the first years we made "Roast Hog" rolls - our signature sarnie - A Portuguese ciabatta (a softer dough than the traditional Italian ciabatta) into which we ladle a generous serving of home made apple sauce, spicy roquette salad and then our roast hog. Carved off in slices marinated again to take on all the flavours of the rosemary, fennel, garlic and various secret spices we use to lift our offering from a scrummy roast piece of pork to a small bit of heaven in a roll. Topped with a bit of crackling that has been lovingly basted and roasted with our secret marinade sauce.

Over the following years Gordon Ramsay's F-word have used our services. We have catered for rock stars and royalty. Most recently we were honoured to be asked to cook for Heston Blumenthal's team at Bray.
