Well that was quite an event! It feels like we’ve only just recovered from the amazing 40th anniversary party we catered for on Saturday. As we’re based in Abbots Ripton, it wasn’t far to go to get to but as it can take up to 6 hours to roast one of our tasty organic pigs we set out bright and early.
One of the things we Abbots Ripton hog roasters really pride ourselves on is taking all the hassle and worry off the shoulders of our clients: so along with our custom designed hog roast hire Abbots Ripton ovens we also packed into the van table linens, cutlery, crockery and a marquee.
Once we got there we immediately started to set up the marquee on a beautifully kept lawn with views of the rolling Abbots Ripton countryside all around. Then we got to work with the cooking. We’ve been hog roasting for 20 years now and think we’ve learned some pretty good tricks when it comes to serving delicious, melt in the mouth roasted Abbots Ripton pork. But it’s not only pork we can offer: we can also roast spring lamb, beef, chicken, turkey, we can even do kebabs!
The happy couple had asked us to provide one of our organic pigs for the day, and they’d also asked us to make some of our tasty salads. We made the salads and apple sauce right there while the meat was cooking as we know there’s nothing worse when you’re hosting an event than being presented with wilted salads and stale looking food! So we had plenty to keep us busy between attending to the meat so it turned out perfectly and getting the side dishes finished.
It was a really lovely day and after a shaky start the sun came out and continued to shine for most of the day. we got plenty of compliments, not just for our outstanding food, but also on the quality of our service: our serving staff are all well trained and polite. And at the end of they cleared everything away so our hosts could carry on enjoying their party without the bother of clearing dishes and washing up.
It’s this sort of day that really makes us want to keep perfecting our catering service. And that’s why we offer a diverse range of menus to suit any occasion from a wedding reception to a christening to a corporate party or a farmers market. We can cater for the smallest gathering to a large crowd of hundreds. And we think our passion for good food really comes through in every mouth watering bite of our roasts.
