Make your Christmas or New Year party stick out with a hog roast.

Tuesday, May 24th, 2011

A good morning to you all on this freezing cold, miserable
day! I’m in Sunny Brighton, although it’s anything but today. On my way over it
was absolutely throwing it down and pushing sub-zero, worse still, the heater
in the office is playing up again – I’m sat with a big flask of coffee just to
try and stay warm!

Let me jump right into this and let you know what I got up
to yesterday. Yesterday I was in Brighton for the first time in quite a while
and I was chasing down interested parties who need catering and other services.
Spoke to a good number of people and closed some big contracts for the start of
next year. Also finalised a few dates for machine hire this month. The machine
hire is always popular at this time of year as people, pubs, clubs and
restaurants are looking to do something special for Christmas and New Year
celebrations. If you’re planning to throw an impressive Christmas or New Year’s
celebration you can’t go past hiring a hog roast machine for value. It’s
incredibly cheap and so easy to cook with our machines that anybody can cook
food that’s downright amazing. But if you have the money and a big enough guest
list why not let us take the stress of your shoulders and do all the hard work
for you with the best hog roast catering service to be found in all of
Brighton!

For long time readers of the
blog you know what to do, if this is your first time visiting our website our
office staff work from 9-5, Monday-Friday and you can speak with our team
through email or phone. If it’s catering that you’re after we have an enquiry

within 24 hours with hog roast catering quotes for your Brighton event.

 

Our hog roasts are locally sourced!

I’ve been travelling across England lately as you may have
noticed, and at the moment I’m in Portsmouth. Yesterday was something a little
different than what I’m usually getting up to, as I was travelling through
Portsmouth visiting a good number of independent farmers and butchers.

It’s a good job I wrapped up warm yesterday as there was no
refuge from the windy weather. In the end it was a great day and I found a few
farmers and butchers who I’m more than happy to, in fact I’m eager to work
with.

An important part of my personal and as an extension the
company ethos is quality above all else, the long term above the short. One of
the reasons for the success of our hog roast services in Portsmouth as with
other locations I believe is the emphasis that we place on capitalising on
great, local produce. We insist on using free range, organic and locally
sourced foods. Not only does this have great benefits to us as the food we cook
for customers is incredibly fresh and tastes wonderful, it also helps out the
local community because we’re helping independent farmers and butchers, often
shut out by big farming and big business, to survive and in a lot of cases
thrive.

Yesterday I travelled to meet many great butchers and
farmers to sample their food and learn about their produce, their history,
their jobs. I met some great people and although I can’t work with all of them
there were several individuals I met who we’ll be working closely with in
future and using their fresh, ethically raised produce for our hog roast
catering in Portsmouth.

There’s some absolutely amazing work being done by farmers
in Portsmouth and some of the food I tasted yesterday was as good as any I’ve
ever tasted.

Today it’s back to the norm,
more event catering and paperwork. Stay tuned for future blog posts from myself
and if you’re in Portsmouth on Twitter help spread the word by tweeting our
blog posts.
