Gathering with loved ones for a celebration is always a special occasion, and last week, Hog Roast Sutton had the pleasure of catering an outdoor family party. It was an honour to be part of such an important day for those in attendance, providing a memorable feast that brought everyone together. At the heart of the meal was our succulent hog roast, slow cooked to perfection. The tender, flavourful pork was served with a side of crispy crackling for those who love that extra crunch. The hog roast, with its rich, savoury flavours, was the highlight of the event, creating a mouthwatering centrepiece that everyone gathered around to enjoy.
For this relaxed family gathering, the host chose to set up a help-yourself serving station—a perfect option for outdoor events. This allowed guests to serve themselves and create their ideal plate, picking whatever caught their eye and deciding their own portion sizes. This way, guests could mingle, enjoy conversations, and return to the station as they pleased for seconds (or thirds!). It gave people the freedom to sample different aspects of the buffet too – to try something new, or simply take their pick of a little bit of everything!
Since Hog Roast Sutton have own marquee, we were able to set up in a designated area of the garden, away from the main gathering space, ensuring we didn’t intrude on the family’s celebration. This approach allowed the guests to fully enjoy their time together while we worked seamlessly behind the scenes, ensuring the food was prepared and served with minimal disruption. Our equipment is completely portable, making it easy for us to adapt to different outdoor settings. Once the food was served, we allowed the guests to help themselves and be on hand with any queries they had. Once everyone had had enough, we cleaned up behind us so that the family didn’t have to worry about a thing once their gathering was over. Hog Roast Sutton’s aim is to ensure that guests have a first-class experience that’s both stress-free and enjoyable, so they can carry on partying the night away!
