Try meat from a Hog Roaster this summer, it’s succulent and scrummy
I went to a friend’s wedding last weekend and they had a hog roaster on the go. I’ve tried meat from a portable grill in the past but I’ve never had the chance to tuck into mouth-watering meat from a Hog Roaster before. As the Hog Roaster slowly cooked a whole pig over hot charcoals I couldn’t believe the wonderful aroma that filled the air. Talk about lip-smacking, it was hard to concentrate as I congratulated the happy couple and you could tell by other people’s reactions they were being seduced by the Hog Roaster as well.
I’m ashamed to say for once in my life I was one of the first in line for the Hog Roster when the meat was ready, much to the disgust of my wife. What can you do though when faced with such a tempting proposition, I did get her a meat-filled bread roll at the same time and that seemed to buck her up a bit!
How does a hog roaster work?
Like I said, the Hog Roaster at my friend’s wedding used charcoals to slowly cook a pig over a high temperature and this ensures the meat it nice and moist whilst the crackling on the outside is crispy and crunchy. It also ensures the flavour of the meat is amazing, the open fire aspect of the Hog Roaster produces the most intense taste sensation and when served hot into a bread roll it’s such a fabulous treat, it certainly tastes better than a gas-fired portable grill.
I was really surprised at how filling a roll of freshly carved meat could be and the guy operating the Hog Roaster seemed to pile my plate up high with some of the tastiest meat I’ve ever tried. Plus the side order of crackling I was given was a real bonus and I must confess; I had a decent dollop of apple sauce as well, it seemed rude not to when given the chance.
Would I eat meat from a hog roaster in the future?
You can count on it! I loved the flavours of the Hog Roaster and it’s such a visually stunning way to cook meat in an alfresco setting, it’s far more entertaining than a portable grill. Obviously a wedding is the perfect environment to use a Hog Roaster but it’s also ideal for any type of social gathering. You do need quite a few guests to get through a whole pig that’s been cooked on a Hog Roaster but if you have people in attendance with an appetite that’s as healthy as mine you’ll shift plate after plate of great-tasting meat.
Pig roast events have gained in popularity thanks to the ease of use of a Hog Roaster, I for one am totally sold on this great way to cook food fresh.
