Weddings are fantastic events. Most people enjoy them. They are a chance to dress up, catch up with friends and family, and celebrate a loved one’s special day.
Of course, the ceremony is the most important part of the day, but the fun starts at the reception. Guests love the chance to enjoy great food, have a dance and socialise.
Naturally, getting the food for your reception right is important. However, that can be tricky when you are trying to feed a large group of people, all of whom have different tastes and dietary needs.
Fortunately, you can make things a lot easier by opting to include a hog roast in your wedding feast. It really is a great way to make sure everyone goes home full and happy.
A flexible option
Perhaps the best thing about a hog roast is how flexible it is. Roasted meats can be served in many ways.
For example, there is the option to have the meat carved and served as part of a hot meal. Ideal if you want to serve a hot meal. Many people opt to serve roasted potatoes, with vegetables, but there are plenty of other options.
It really is up to you to decide which dishes accompany the meat. You can use a range of sauces or gravies to cater for the different tastes of your guests.
Modern spit roast machines can be set up to cook virtually any type of meat, which provides you with even more choice. You can easily cater for the dietary needs of most guests by varying the meats served, and adding a couple of vegetarian options.
If you want a more informal reception, a buffet works really well. The meats can be sliced and added to the table, so people can help themselves.
Alternatively, a chef can carve the meat and serve it to your guests. They can then help themselves to the side dishes. That way, everyone gets what they like, and people from different tables get the chance to mingle.
A great wedding breakfast option
If you are holding your wedding early in the day, you may need to feed your guests twice. A hog roast can be great for this. Serving it to your guests pulled and in baps is easy.
It is a fast way to feed a large group and provide everyone with tasty food. By offering a range of sauces and a simple salad, your guests get to choose what flavour sensation they experience, and you make sure that any vegetarians are looked after. If you are holding a private wedding, which is likely to go on into the early hours a hog roast is a great way to give everyone’s energy levels a boost.
