Hosting a summer fair is a great British tradition, with events taking place across the country throughout the warmer months. Your fair may be hosted for all kinds of purposes with stalls including crafts, food, games, sports, and fundraising opportunities. At Hog Roast Dorchester, we have a variety of catering options that are perfect for events like this, including this one…
Earlier this year, Hog Roast Dorchester was hired to cater for a summer fair taking place at a local village hall. The fair happens each year during July and includes a wide variety of stalls and activities, including local businesses, crafts, and talents, such as dance and gymnastics groups. Alongside the entertainment, there are also often several catering options, including an ice cream van, a bar, and a pancake stall. For this year’s main catering choice, Hog Roast Dorchester has been hired to serve a classic hog roast at the event, with a few additional dishes to ensure that there is something for every guest to enjoy. There is usually a large turnout at the fair, with an estimated 400 guests in attendance. Luckily, Hog Roast Dorchester can cater for events of any size and was happy to take part!
On the day of the event, the Hog Roast Dorchester team arrived at the village hall and set up our catering station on the adjoining football field. We began our preparation by slow-roasting the hog and ensuring that it was cooked to perfection before it was expertly carved and served in fresh bread rolls. Alternatively, we provided succulent pork sausages and veggie sausages to ensure that there was a dish for every guest to enjoy. For the sides, our team served sage and onion stuffing, homemade applesauce, crispy crackling, homemade chips, and a selection of fresh salad dishes. Our menu created a balanced and delicious buffet lunch for the guests to enjoy, with more than enough to go around.
