Lamb or Hog Roasting

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

Now more than always hog roasts are very popular possibly even more so than they were hundreds of years ago.At grand banquets in medieval times the host would roast a whole hog to dish up to his invitees as it was one of the most amazing and amazing things you could do. Only a select few got to experience a hog roast, as it was simply the really rich and important who could afford to host a hog roast.Now in 2009 hog roasts are yet more popular then they were back in medieval times and now absolutely anyone can enjoy them.There is no easier way of feeding numerous greedy people then having a hog roast at your event, so when you are next hosting a large party you should consider it as a possibilityAlthough it was a thousand years ago the method of roasting a hog in 2009 has barely changed from the medieval method. Using a gas cooker and a mechanism to turn the spit rather than a fire pit and a manual spit turning system, these are the little difference between the two methods.The results are a sight which few men or women can reject, both methods develop the same beautifully roasted hog, dripping with flavour and covered in golden brown crackling.A hog roast will turn your event into a day that no one will forget in a hurry, so whether you’re throwing a medieval themed feast or just holding a birthday party remember to keep hog roasts in mind.
