This is where we try to keep you up to date on what is happening in the world of Hog roast catering. As a Catering company we cater for many events and travel the distance so that we are able to attend your festivities and put on a great show. In the past we have visited some great places and locations and along the way met a great bunch of people, not only our customers but also other caterers, managers and staff at hotels and venues. This is why we are the number one caterers throughout the UK as we have years of experience and have build rapports with businesses and people along the way. Not only do we provide excellent food but also the service is second to none- we always give 100 per cent no matter how little or big the events are. We want to be remembered for our quality service and outstanding dishes so that family and friends are impressed and would hopefully think about having a Hog roast in the future and pencil us in. As you will probably see on our website their is no prices for our Menu’s, this is because from the outset we want to talk to you and get an idea of your plans and expectations, we want to help guide you through your planned event as smoothly as possible and also create a Menu to suit yourself if none of our Menu’s have what your looking for.

Yesterday was one of our staffs birthday that works in the office, she went out for a tasty meal and a few drinks with friends- this morning she isn’t feeling her best ha ha. It was very hectic aswell yesterday as we ended up having a few technical problems with our Emails, receiving them and sending them. The day started off very well too!!

Luckily today the issues have now all been resolved, so it’s business as usual.

This weekend I am off camping up the lake district so I shall be helping pitch up the tent and no doubt I be cooking on the BBQ 🙂 .It has been years since I last camped out but looking forward to it, just hope the weather stays nice. I am only camping out the one night(thankgod). I am abit weary about the creepy crawlies but I probably will end up staying awake in front of the lit fire with a few drinks and snacks till the early hours of the morning. What are you doing this weekend?? Have you anything planned?? Any party celebrations?? Why not book us for your Hog Roast??

Anything that you may have lined up in the near future and you are thinking of having a Hog Roast, you can always Email us to get an initial price for any of our Menu’s or simply Email us with whatever you have in mind for your event. Have a lovely weekend.

What a gorgeous day!!

 I have been up very early this morning catering for an event. My team and I catered for a 100 guests as the customers family member sadly passed away. Although it is a sad occasion the guests certainly gave him a great farewell. When you think about catering people always presume it is a happy time in peoples life to throw a party. This is not always the case!! We are always ready for any type of event and occasion and adapt to the circumstances in which the parties are being held. They had a moving tribute to him and speeches in their garden whilst we were attending to the Hog Roast. My assistants were busy in their garden preparing all the salads and rolls and accompaniments. As for adapting to the circumstances later on we are attending an 18th Birthday- so it really is one extreme to another but we are always professional.

  Like many events we literally do cater for any, weddings, private parties, corporate events, charities. Any excuse, then we are the ones to get in touch with!

If you prefer the more hands on approach then you can always hire one of our machines too, this is the DIY so you get to do all the cooking yourselves and be the main attraction on the day after our Hog Roasting machine of course.

Enjoy the rest of your day/evening

Hello hog blog readers and a very happy Friday to each and every one of you from the hog roast caterer team. 

On my way to cook up yet another hog roast tonight at an engagement party at a local club.  The loved up couple have requested a hog roast and BBQ plus all the trimmings for their friends and family to enjoy as they celebrate the special evening.  They decided to opt for their very own personal menu rather than one of our sample ones.  Take a look below to see the fantastic hog roast we have created for them

Hello Hog blog readers, hope you are all well and having a great week so far.  Us hog roast caterers are always very busy but the last week has been particularly hectic, most definitely the busiest we have ever been both in the office and out on location catering many events. 

The way the enquiries are continuing to pour into the office it looks like the Summer months are going to continue in this way with almost every weekend and even some week days already fully booked. 

Today is no exception as we are busy once again.  Even though its only a Tuesday afternoon we are getting ready to go and catering at a business networking event this evening.  The event is at a posh city centre hotel about half an hours drive from us and we will be serving up one of our famous hog roasts to the hungry business people.  The event is being held for local businesses owners who have recently set up on their own.  It is a chance for them to meet and network with other local business owners as well as listening t some experts speakers give their advice and tips on how to make your business a success.

We while be providing a yummy hog roast feat for them all.  Along with our tasty famous hog roast we will be serving bread rolls, apple sauce, stuffing, crackling and a selection of salads.  The hog roast caterer staff will also be serving complimentary drinks to wash down the hog roast feast.

Welcome once again to all of our followers:

Well its Wednesday and we are half way through the week, with a few staff on their holidays the office is a little bit more under pressure to get all of our customer’s  quotes out and answer the phone without delays.

Some dates are becoming booked up which is a good sign for the caterers but not so good for customers that are unable to book on those certain days- wherever possible though, we always try to squeeze you in or refer you to someone else that is not so busy on those days. Remember just because our qualified chef’s are busy does not mean that you can’t hire the machines and do the Hog Roast yourself!!

This weekend is a busy one with it being Bank Holiday Monday and a local school is holding an events day(well its all weekend). The school is funded by a church so they are putting on a fair for all the children that attend and also the people that attend the church. This is where they have asked us to cook on site for them but are doing more off a BBQ as the kiddies tend to like the burgers and sausages and hot dogs with plenty of ketchup. They are going to have people in stocks to help raise money for the church and school, bouncy castle , cake stalls and I am sure plenty more things will be taking place. They have paid for our services so the guests do not have to worry about buying the food- they just need to concentrate on having a good time

Well today is absolutely awful and I have an event booked up for later on, but has luck has it, it is inside a church community hall- they have booked us to attend a pensioners lunch and cook on site for them while they have a get together and drink plenty of tea and as a twist are having a Hog roast where the community will add their own Vegetables to the plates.

This event is a regular occurrence helping the elderly get out of their homes and stops them getting lonely if they have no family to care or visit them. Which I think is a marvellous day out.

Like any event we host it is always great to meet new people and cook for them and she the delight upon our customer’s faces. They have requested we take joints of meats as appose to a full Pig as there are only small numbers and doubt very much that the full Hog would get eaten. Its a Sunday roast on a Monday really- This I could eat everyday of the week(nothing quite beats the taste or fills one up). It will be quite steadily away today but with the same amount of effort and professionalism as any event we attend. We just hope all that are present enjoy the tastes a succulent Joint brings so the conversation flows and this then becomes a way of bringing people together. Have a good day to all!!!

Hi everybody its Friday once again and here in the hog roast caterer office we have got that Friday feeling as we prepare for yet another busy weekend full of catering events and hog roast machine hire deliveries! 

I’m off to do my first catering event this afternoon and I will be cooking for 150 people at a 21st birthday party.  The lucky birthday girl plus her friends and family will be tucking into a hog roast feast.

I am cooking up simple hog roast menu that’s consists of spit roasted hog, hot crunchy crackling, sweet apple sauce and savory stuffing along side fresh white, brown and granary bread rolls.  The perfect hog roast feast! 

Along side the hog roast our waiting on staff will be serving champagne cocktails to get everybody in the party mood.  The party is fancy dress themed so we are looking forwarding to seeing some spectacular outfits.  The decor of the venue has a pink theme and the birthday girl requested everything to match so we have purchased some shocking pink napkins and paper plates to keep he customer happy.

After the hog roast has been enjoyed by all we will be providing some favorites from our dessert menu for the guests to enjoy.  Then we will clear up and remove all rubbish and leave the birthday girl and her guests to enjoy the rest of the night, Im sure they will continue into the early hours!  For me and the rest of the team it will be an early night as we have an early start on Saturday morning for another catering event.  have a great weekend everyone 🙂

Hello hog blog readers hope you are all well today.  Its the big day tomorrow the wedding of the year and all the staff are talking about today is there plans for the Royal wedding and where they will be watching it.  Myself and the rest of the hog roast caterers will be busy cooking at events for celebrators and roasting hogs at street parties. 

After the royal wedding celebrations are over we have a royal wedding off our own to cater for as one of our lovely admin assistants is tying the knot on Saturday afternoon and marrying the love of her life 🙂

And what did they choose to eat as their wedding breakfast meal?  A luxury hog roast with all the trimmings of course!  And who did they ask to cater this for them? Us of course, and not just because of the staff discount!  Also because we are the best wedding caterers around and have a wide range of quality wedding menus to choose from…… in fact I’m quite surprised that William and Kate didn’t ask us to roast a pig for them tomorrow but never mind it is their loss!

  So on Saturday myself, other members of the catering team and our waiting on staff will be kept busy at this wedding.  We cant wait to cook up one of our excellent hog roast wedding catering packages for the happy couple on their special day! Congratulations to Sara and her fiancé the whole team wishes you a long and happy life together

Good afternoon once again hog blog readers.  Hope you are all well on this fine afternoon!  What is everybody’s plans for the next long weekend?  I hope we will see you all at one of our many hog roast events that we are catering over the four day weekend. 

The full weekend looks very busy but without a date our busiest day is Friday the 29th of April…… the royal wedding day.  It seems the whole of the UK wishes to enjoy and celebrate the big day with a good old fashioned street party and a traditional hog roast.  Every single member of the team is booked up all day cooking tasty hog roast menus on Friday.

Myself and another member of my team are doing a local street party and cooking a simple pig in a bun menu for our customers and their friends and family.  We will be cooking the popular hog roast menu and serving a special union jack disposable plates and paper napkins which we have purchased specially for the occasion.  Other members of the team will be doing the same thing at street parties all over the UK. 

So on Friday the 29th make sure you are near a street party being catered by us and come and enjoy a right royal hog roast!
