Good afternoon we hope you all had a fantastic weekend, we had a great weekend of catering at events with a couple of weddings that we attended with many guests, we love catering at large events however we have no minimum amount of people that we cater for so if your having a small  private party .

Its back to the office this week and we are catching up on all the enquiry forms and  telephone enquiries this morning getting back to all the clients that are wanting to book for there events.

This week we have a quiet week of catering so its time to get all the paper work done for this weekends birthday parties. We are catering at a couple of birthday parties this weekend a double birthday bash on Saturday its a 21st/23rd birthday party with the two women wanting some delicious grub cooked on our hog roasting machines with a couple of salads to go with it. On Sunday this week w3e are at a 40th birthday party catering for a lady that is also celebrating the birth of her lovely granddaughter so we are looking forward to that too.

Christmas spirit

Good Morning, It is time for the final hog roast blog of the week yes its Friday the 18th of November 2011 and now Christmas is getting closer it seems that everyone has the idea of a hog roast in mind for there Christmas party.

Whole Spit Roasted Turkey Served With Fresh Cranberries and Sage & Onion Stuffing

Served With Soft Floured Rolls

This seems to be the most popular of our menus for the festive season even leading up to the new year people have opted for turkey instead of pig  for a change.

We have a great range of spit roasting machines and equipment so we are able to cook a large number of turkeys for the larger events, it doesn’t just smell and look delicious it tastes fantastic too.

Having a hog roast at a work party can be great fun and a great piece to talk about. Why not add some salads or to get more into the Christmas mood some seasonal vegetables and warm new potatoes in herb butter our staff will be more than happy to serve your chosen menu

Weather Conditions

Good morning its Thursday the 17th of November 2011 and time for another Hog Caterer Blog from here in the office. Well today we have been promised some sunshine with mild weather which is good news however we will also be receiving a few wintery showers later on this evening.

The weather does not really affect us in the slightest way possible here at hog roast caterer. We can cater no matter what the weather is like!

 It is coming close to Christmas time now and clients that have booked early are calling the office worrying about the weather asking us questions like; if it rains will we still attend the event? The answer to this is yes of course!

as we supply our own covers and are able to cater whether it is rain or shine or even snow which is what people are concerned about.

We have been dealing with the snowy weather conditions for years so we are fully prepared for when the snow comes.

Another happy customer

Hello and welcome to the latest hog roast blog.

Last night we catered at an event close to the office for over two hundred and fifty people at a college nearby, the host of the evening was so please with how the event went that she came and thanked all of the catering team for a great meal and a great professional service when the event was coming to an end she also told one of our chefs that she could not have hoped for a better or smoother running evening.

We have a few events this Friday, Saturday and Sunday that we are catering at, so we have a busy weekend ahead indeed and we will be setting off bright and early to our events this weekend. This is so that we can prepare everything fresh on site, we will be serving up a few extras for the guest to tuck in to with the meat this weekend we will be cooking some lovely fresh vegetables and potatoes with the pork rolls, cracking, stuffing and home made apple sauce on site.

Menu Ideas

Its Tuesday the 15th of November and yes we are half way through the month already. It seems that Christmas is just around the corner  now and everyone is getting into the festive spirit.

Today here in the office we have been putting together different Christmas menu ideas for clients that call the office wanting to book for Christmas parties leading up to the 25th of December.

We are able to cook Turkey on our machines so we are making sure that our clients are aware of this when they enquire, we are also able to adjust our menus to bring our clients the menu of their choice by adding things such as potato options also seasonal vegetables and pudding options if this is what they are after. The catering team are very flexible when it comes to putting menus together and are able to give customers the menus that they desire not just the menus on our website however the menus on our website are the most popular ones that we get enquiries about.

Monday Catch Up

Good afternoon and welcome to the first hog blog of the week brought to you from here at the hog roast caterer office.

Mondays are always our busiest day of the week here in the office. This is because we have all the emails from the weekend to reply back to, however we have managed to respond to all the emails and telephone calls from the weekend already and also Mondays enquiries so far.

This now gives us plenty of time this week to catch up on all of our New years eve and Christmas party bookings, we have time now to check that everything is running smoothly on our computer systems and that we have the correct information from our clients for upcoming events that we have logged on our computers.

 This week we have a quiet week with only a couple of events taking place on Saturday and both of these are last minute bookings that have come through this weekend, luckily the catering team are able to cater for events with sometimes less that a weeks notice (that is if we are not already fully booked for that particular date) which is great news for our customers that have decided that they want a hog roast or have been let down by another catering company perhaps? as our catering team is loyal and professional when it comes to the organization for any of our bookings early or last minute they are both treated at a high standard.

Company Event

Hello and good afternoon Hog caterer blog readers its Thursday the 10th of November 2011… and time for the latest Hog Blog brought to you from here in the office we hope you are having a great day so far I thought I would take 5 minutes to tell you what the catering team will be getting up to this evening as they have already set up at the event they are catering for in a couple of hours.

The catering team have headed out about 20 minutes away from the office today and will be catering for over 300 people at a company event, the event is only three hours long so they wanted the catering team to be there nice and early to cook the meat on site. This way it will be easier for the employees to nibble on once cooked, with the pork rolls, stuffing, crackling and apple sauce the host of the event also wanted pasta at the event to go along side the meat rolls, and also salad. Adding pastas and salads to your chosen menu really steps it up a notch and brings more of a feel to the event.
