Farmers Market


We Abingdon Spitting Pig hog roasters have been really busy lately: a corporate event here, a birthday celebration there and last week a farmers market. We really do surprise ourselves sometimes at just how much we can do. But it’s our passion for good food that keeps us bringing such exceptional quality to every event we are asked to cater for.

The farmers market was no exception. We were provided with an organic pig by the farmers. Quality is so important to us that we only use free range, organic meats in our roasts, but we provided a spring lamb ourselves. So while the meat was hissing and cooking away, we got on with making our delicious mint and mustard sauce for the lamb and the apple sauce and stuffing for the pig.

It was really great to see the people of Appleton and the surrounding area come out for the farmers market. The stalls looked great with their banks of fresh vegetables and tables of homemade jams and chutneys. Once our roasts started to cook and the smell of delicious roasting meat started to drift about on the air, people started to come over and see what we had to offer too. We could hardly keep up with the demand for tender cuts of lamb or pork in soft floured rolls either drizzled with mint or apple sauce and the crackling that we pride ourselves on went down very quickly too.

It’s nice to get out to markets like this and interact with people in a more informal way, but we also know just how to provide a quality catering service alongside our excellent food, for more formal events. We provide everything from the obvious food, to the less obvious details like table linens and cutlery. We know when you’re hosting a party you want to concentrate on your guests so we make it our business to worry about the little details so you don’t have to.

Our menus are wide ranging so we’re confident that we can provide something to suit everyone. We even offer vegetarian options all made to our high standards.

If you’d rather just have the joy of using one of our ovens for your party, give Spitting Pig a call, because we can also offer our ovens for hire. And because we design and build them all ourselves we can make sure you get all the right tools and attachments to make sure your food is all cooked beautifully, whether it’s a hog roasted pig, or even kebabs!

Whatever you’ve got planned this summer, give the Spitting Pig hog roasters a call and they will get to work helping you to make your event one to remember!
