PIG ROASTS for up to 1200 people.  Serving Connecticut  MA, RI, NY 
Do you need a clean Pig Roast Catering company?
This professional pig roaster is one of the few on site pig roast companies that use only fresh USDA inspected pigs.
I personally roast every pig. Pigs have been slow roasted a minimum of 14-24 hours, since the 1970's.
Pig Roast etiquette please read.
