A barbecue or other catering?
Compared with a hog roast, a barbecue gives more choice, with beef, chicken and pork rather than one main meat. A hog roast feeds everyone at once and makes a centrepiece, so some events have both. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why book with us
- Cooked on site by our chef
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Barbecue and hog roast together for big events
- No surprises: everything in writing
