This December, the Hog Roast Polesworth team created a fantastic Hog Roast for Voyage Care. They were hired to help the local group host their Christmas Open Day and so delivered a brilliant festive service. The open day was a great way to get everyone in the festive mood and was a great success. The event was held at the base of Voyage Care in Lichfield and the Hog Roast Polesworth arrived and delivered the catering onsite. Voyage Care chose the option of the Hog Roast team delivering their buffet outdoors and so the team brought along their marquee and set up their tables and cooking equipment outside. The team also have equipment which they can bring along to the venue to keep the food warm so that indoor and outdoor catering is available.
Voyage Care chose the Hog Roast Polesworth team’s ‘Menu One’ for their Christmas Open Day. However, to put a festive twist on the classic Hog Roast menus, turkey was selected as the main meat for the buffet. The vegetarian option chosen was the delicious grilled vegetable and halloumi skewers which went down a treat. The food appeared to be thoroughly enjoyed by the locals and they all enjoyed the traditional Christmas time food. The meat was served with a side of stuffing and a variety of complimenting sauces. In addition, bread rolls and wraps were served in baskets alongside the food to suit the casual atmosphere of the event.
The Hog Roast Polesworth team had to cater for 180 people and so they had to ensure that they made plenty of food to go around. In addition, Voyage Care requested for the food to be served as a lunch time buffet from 12 pm to 1:15 pm. This meant that the team had to keep the food warm and also continually produce fresh food to top up the buffet as it was eaten up. The service was led by the Hog Roast Polesworth team’s Catering Manager, Russ who ensured that all the food was cooked perfectly and presented well. Furthermore, the team had to ensure that the quality of the food was maintained throughout the service and everything remained fresh.
