A Perfect Hog Roast Setting in Felixstowe
Felixstowe became a major port in 1886 and when the pier was built in 1905 tourism boomed in the town and it became very popular with Victorians as a summer seaside get away destination. The German Imperial Family visited Felixstowe in the 1800s and they too were very fond of a hog roast around this time, in fact in 1752 a suckling pig smoker was built on the now historical German Lah Farm in Schale and they still roast hogs there today. In Germany they call roast suckling pig Spanferkel and often serve it on their festive occasions for example the very popular Oktoberfest.
At Spitting Pig East Anglia we have been lucky enough to cater for over one hundred events in Felixstowe over the years and have covered everything from birthdays to weddings, barn dances to festivals, there are no limits or restrictions on the kind of events or number of individuals a hog or general meat spit roast can be suitable for, the hog is often 80 to 120 pounds dressed weight and that can feed a lot of hungry party people, we can even hog roast Felixstowe in your back garden if you like and provide a hassle free evening of your dreams.
One of the most unforgettable hog roast Felixstowe events that we catered for was at the Community Centre which is run by Old Felixstowe Community Association (OFCA) for their Christmas Fete last year. We were asked to provide hot food for one hundred plus people and to roast outside the community centre with some wait staff to help serve hot roast pork sandwiches to local residents and members of the affiliated groups who run their sessions from the community centre; these included the Horticultural Society, Lone Star Line Dancers, the Lace Makers, the Jubilee Club, Parents and Toddlers Cub, Theatre Group, Rainbows, Cubs and Beavers and the Allotment Society to name just a few.
