Alis girls Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 The fund raising committe I'm on has asked us to look into a Hog roast as a way of a fund raising do. Now I was going to Google but then thought as you do Omlet - what better place to get into, adv and pointers. Anyone organised one, where did you get and roughly how much - I know they arent cheap. Anyone killed their own hog and roasted it (is this possible - I am a hog roast virgin ) thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddie Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 we're just doing this for a fundraiser as well. Shop around, and ask about the extras, ie, rolls, stuffing, apple sauce, napkins, veg option, etc etc. A lot price it all by item, and they are negotiable! dont forget to pin them down on milage charges as well, and also if thre is a minimum charge in case of poor uptake/bad weather etc i personally dont like hog raost, but got shouted down!!! Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reikiranf Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 That seems a good price Claret, our friends had a hog roast at their wedding in Cambridge last week, no buns or rolls etc, just the meat and it was lovely very, tender and succulent, accompanied by homemade salads & dishes including a particularly good coleslaw with apple in it Ali have you tried googling hog roast London? I don't know where you live but one of DH's friends had a hog roast at her house in Eltham a few years ago, so it doesn't matter where you are you'll be able to get something.
