There is nothing better than celebrating a milestone birthday surrounded by friends and family, which is why it can be a great idea to host a birthday party to make the most of the occasion. At Hog Roast Buxton, we have plenty of menus that are perfect for birthday parties, with an option that is sure to suit you and your guest list!
Earlier this year, Hog Roast Buxton was hired to cater for a party to celebrate Lucy’s 21st birthday. The party took place this June and was a wonderful celebration, with 150 guests attending to enjoy the party. The venue was Ridgehead Farm, which is a lovely rural site in Buxton, perfect for a summer party. Our catering manager Martin was tasked with creating a menu that would be perfect for every guest to enjoy, including a tasty plant-based dish. It was decided that our classic hog roast menu would be suitable, with a few additional dishes to create a well-rounded evening buffet.
On the day of the party, the Hog Roast Buxton team arrived at the farm with plenty of time to prepare for the 20:15 serving time. We started by slow-roasting the hog and allowing it to cook to perfection, which required around five hours. Once ready, the succulent pork was expertly carved and served in fresh bread rolls, alongside sage and onion stuffing, homemade applesauce, and crispy crackling. For plant-based guests, we provided our grilled vegetable and halloumi skewers, as well as vegan BBQ-pulled jackfruit in fresh buns. For the sides, the guests enjoyed a mixed salad, gourmet coleslaw, homemade chips, and sweet potato fries. The dishes combined to create a delicious buffet menu, with plenty of different options for the guests to enjoy. Lucy had a wonderful 21st birthday and her party was a lot of fun for everyone involved!
