Last month we were asked to be part of a popular event hosted by a local pub in Fort William. Each season they host a long walk through the Scottish countryside where couples, families, children and four legged friends alike come together, this time wrapped up in gloves and scarfs for a beautiful hike followed by warm drinks, pints and tasty food when they arrive back at the pub. During prior walking events, the hosts have put on their own BBQ in the lovely garden area at the back of the property but had sought out something different this year – which is where ourselves at Hog Roast Fort William…

Just imagine the thrill of a hog roast Ettrick spectacle at your wedding reception – your guests tantalised by the incredible smells of the delicious meat and then astonished by all of the delectable tastes once it’s served. Billy and Ida contacted us several months ago with this in mind but with a bit of a twist; they wanted a hog roast Ettrick wedding breakfast instead of an evening meal! As the couple were heading off to their honeymoon straight after the wedding service itself, they decided to serve the main meal in the morning before church instead of the more traditional way of having a hog roast for a reception…

Our tasty winter warmer menu is often a big success at outdoor events this time of year, once the nights get cooler and guests need a little warming up when partying outside, but it’s also ideal for indoor events, like the one we catered over the weekend. You may not already know that we can cater inside your venue, but it’s an option for your party or event as long as the space is large enough and well-ventilated. For Georgina’s 21st birthday celebration, her parents wanted all of the village hall party to be held indoors, and that meant cooking the hog roast Peterhead they ordered from scratch indoors, too. We…

Friday saw us up in Aberdeen again for the Park Inn Hotel for a hog roast at an oil and gas company party, this is the second time we have been at this venue for this event. It was a simple menu 1 consisting of Hog Roast rolls with crispy crackling and a range of sauces. It was a fantastic day and we served outside under our gazebo. Serving 200 hungry people pulled pork rolls in the Aberdeen sunshine we thought how lucky we are to be back at this event. With everybody well fed and happy we said our farewells and departed for the trip home, with Jimmy the…

The Royal Highland Show in Edinburgh saw spitting pig catering for the Hereford Cattle Society for their annual dinner after the days judging, this is the 6th year we have catered for this small event for our friends in the Hereford Society, it started when we ourselves were showing our cows at the show and has become a permanent fixture in our diary ever since, whether we are showing cows or not we have always been asked back. This year instead of the usual Hog Roast they opted for some of our own Hereford Beef slow roasted with roasted carrots and honeyed parsnips with roast potatoes, gravy and Horseradish sauce,…

It can often be a struggle to choose what kind of food to have at your party or event but there are many reasons why having a hog roast can be the best decision. First of all, there’s the captivating sight of it all; it’s often seen as entertainment or theatre, and however you see it on the day, it’s likely that the spectacle will stay with you for years to come. Then there are the smells that surround you at your event, the delicious tastes of the juicy meat and the crunchy crackling, as well as the fact that it feels like an exclusive treat to have such an…

We received a call from a local businessman recently, asking us to cater an informal team building event at his company with a Hog Roast in Musselburgh. We’ve been providing corporate hospitality for many years now, for both small and large events, formal and informal. Whichever your business needs and however much your budget, you can be assured that we treat all of our customers to the same excellent service and delicious food. In this instance, Ben wanted our Corporate Hospitality Menu Option 1 menu, which is your chosen meat served with sauce inside fresh, floured bread rolls. This menu option is very popular with businesses as it’s a no-nonsense…

As a caterer, I’ve always thought that you can never have too many parties in your lifetime. There might be a baby shower before you’re born which starts it off, then various birthday parties over the years, engagement, wedding and work parties, then a retirement party later in life. A lovely new customer of ours, Elsie, came to us recently to ask about catering for a garden party at her home with one of our popular hog roasts. She said there was no real reason for the party, except that she wanted to get together with some select friends. She was now in her 80s, sadly starting to lose her…
