This event oficially starts at 7pm, but you are welcome to arrive earlier in the day to watch the hog cook over fire. We have decided to go big or go home. This is it folks, this is the big daddy. This is the whole hog. Literally - we are going to cook a full pig over the flames. Inspired by the menu at Rodney Scott's famous BBQ joint we are hosting a pop-up eat and learn event at our HQ. When you arrive, you will be actively helping to make and cook Southern Hush Puppies. Hush Puppies are round golf ball sized, light and flaky cornmeal batter that is fried golden brown on the outside and soft on the inside served as a side dish to any southern meal. After starters we will remove a slow cooked whole hog from our home made pit. Served with fresh sourdough bread and home-made coleslaw. For dessert our resident baker, Laura, will have prepared a classic decadent Hummingbird Cake. This moist and rich cake is made with banana and pineapple and topped with cream cheese and pecan brittle. Pure luxury. We will serve a complimentary Barbacoa Rum or Low 'n' Sloe Gin for the non-drivers, and you are welcome to BYOB. There will be loads of soft drinks available. Everyone will take home recipes and instructions for all the dishes.
