Hog Roast Torpoint were delighted when we were approached by Melissa from The Cow Shed at Freathy Farmhouse in Millbrook to cater for around 30 people at a private party.  We have six menus to choose from for this type of event and to suit each client’s requirements and in this case, Mellissa wanted us to present the Southern Slow Roast Menu.  This menu which doesn’t limit your enjoyment in any way and has a variety of slow roasted meats served in a wide selection of different rolls or enjoy with salads and new potatoes.  Melissa tailored the menu further requesting that we serve; BBQ Pork Butt, Texan 24 Hour Beef Brisket, Sticky Pork Ribs, Crunchy Coleslaw, Corn Cobettes, a selection of Green Leaf salad and Sweet Potato Wedges.  Wow!  We knew straight away that Melissa knew her stuff and that this was going to be a fantastic party.

Hog Roast Torpoint specialises in this type of event, alongside corporate and wedding functions, and we know that planning and preparation is the key to success.  With this in mind, we liaised very closely with Melissa to determine if there were any special food requests or requirements and to understand how formal the event would be.  Melissa indicated that whilst the event was quite informal, she would like the food served on China plates rather than disposable ones; naturally we incorporated this into our service.

On the day of the party, we arrived at the event well in time to set up discreetly and with instruction that we would need to serve at between 5pm and 5.30pm; with this type of event in a farm environment, wellies are compulsory and this was no exception for Hog Roast Torpoint!

We started serving at just after 5pm when the guests were ready and they had already got a whiff of the delicious aromas of the food that we were preparing; needless to say, the diners were excited and delighted at the food we had to offer with very complimentary feedback on the quality of the food and professional service that Hog Roast Torpoint delivered.
