We all love an excuse to get dressed up and enjoy a three-course meal. Unfortunately, the opportunity doesn’t crop up very often. This means that when you do have an excuse, like attending a charity ball, you have got to go all out. And if you are going big with your attire, it is only right to go big with your catering choice. At Hog Roast Barrowford, we can deliver impressive results.
Attending a ball is even more exciting when it means you are also supporting a good cause. Last weekend, Hog Roast Barrowford catered for a winter charity ball. The ball was thrown to raise money for a local wildlife preservation group. Dean, the organiser, got in touch with our catering manager to discuss his plans for the charity ball. Dean was set on having a formal, sit-down meal and so it was agreed that the menu from our hog roast dining experience would be perfect.
On arrival, guests were served a selection of canapés by our experienced waiting staff. They enjoyed the choice of pan-seared fillet of beef, beer-battered mini fish and chips, roasted duck, chicken liver parfait and roasted halloumi and tomato crostini. For the main course, the attendees had a choice between a whole-roasted free-range pig and a whole-roasted free-range turkey. The meat-free alternatives were BBQ-pulled jackfruit in a bun and grilled vegetable and halloumi skewers. Served alongside freshly made colourful salads, our famous coleslaw and buttered new potatoes. To end the menu on a sweet note, guests had two desserts to choose from, summer pudding and chocolate torte.
Even though it may seem like it, hog roasts do not always have to be an informal catering option. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. At Hog Roast Barrowford, we pride ourselves on our adaptability. So, whatever your goal is for the level of formality you want for your event, we are sure to have a menu that fits perfectly. If you have had a browse through our menus and can’t see one that hits the mark, then just let us know. We are able to make any changes you need, and even whip up a menu unique to you.
