The Hogless Roast
Hackney Wick, London E9, UK
This hogless roast is game-chamging! They've taken the best plant based protein out there, infused it with smoky BBQ flavours, lathered it in apple sauce, topped it with stuffing and packed it into a toasted rustic roll. Then thrown in some naughty Vegan Crackling for good measure.
More than just vegan pulled pork, The Hogless Roast is full of plant based protein and fibre, gluten-free, and, most importantly, keeps pigs off plates!
