A catered barbecue compared with other options
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast is the bigger spectacle, so some events have both. Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.
