Compton Clambakes prides itself on using traditional methods and quality ingredients to create the best possible experience for your event. The unveiling of the bake is always of interest to guests interested in time-honored New England traditions.

The clambake steps:

Seaweed:  Seaweed is harvested from local beaches.

Ingredients:  Seafood is selected at the finest local vendors.

Fire: A bonfire is built on site with seasoned local hardwoods and stones, then lit.

Raking: The bakemaster and crew rake out the fire and place a generous layer of freshly harvested rockweed on top of the stones to create steam.

Trays: The trays are filled and layered with all the fixings.

Steaming: Tarps are layered over the trays to keep the steam in and give the food that unforgetable authentic clambake flavor.

Unveiling: The trays are uncovered and food is quickly delivered to your guests.
