Hog Roast Doncaster’s caterers visited a private residence in Scawthorpe earlier on in the month, after we had been booked by Dan to handle the catering for his 50th birthday party. With the occasion being a huge cause for celebration, the client had invited 50 guests to join him in marking the milestone event!
Putting his trust in our catering manager, James, Dan was able to find a menu that matched his requirements to the letter. Our Classic Hog Roast Menu, which is often referred to as Hog Roast Doncaster’s signature, offers a plentiful buffet of hog roast meat, salty pork scratchings, savoury sage and onion stuffing, side salads, a potato dish and plenty of dips. This feast also includes a choice between two veggie/vegan-friendly options, which was ideal for Dan, who needed to accommodate a variety of diets.
Like many clients, Dan asked us to serve our grilled vegetable skewers, which are offered with optional halloumi, tzatziki dip and flatbreads. And from the array of sides available, he had asked Hog Roast Doncaster to serve two large bowls of both: our best-loved gourmet coleslaw and green leaf salad, which provided an inclusive extra for everyone to help themselves to.
On the day of the event, James also laid out a basket that was filled to the brim with gluten-free rolls, and beside them stood a tower of bamboo crockery and cutlery for the guests to use. By 4pm, the pig was piping hot and ready to be carved, and the sage and onion stuffing, which had been cooking in the juices of the slow-roasted meat, was full of tantalising flavours.
After watching James expertly carve up the tender and juicy pig, birthday boy Dan and his guests eagerly lined up to collect their first of several platefuls of the sensational food. And with mouth-watering aromas filling the air, even the family dog couldn’t resist trying to get his paws on some of the drool-inducing meat!
Once again, Hog Roast Doncaster did a fantastic job. Everyone who attended Dan’s birthday bash thoroughly enjoyed the food on offer. Plus, having us involved allowed the client to relax and enjoy his event just as much as the guests, without having to worry about hosting duties.
