On the 2nd of August, the Hog Roast Petersfield team had the absolute pleasure of catering a brilliant evening for a family and friends cricket match in the heart of Petersfield. The sun was out, the stumps were set, and the air was filled with the sound of laughter, friendly competition—and the unmistakable aroma of a hog roast sizzling to perfection.
Jack, our fantastic Catering Manager, was on hand to lead the team and serve up a feast worthy of the occasion. With 75 guests to feed, we came prepared with a menu that ticked all the boxes for a post-match spread—hearty, flavourful, and guaranteed to bring people together.
At the centre of the table was our signature whole roasted hog, slow-cooked until the crackling was perfectly golden and crispy. Served with apple sauce, our classic sage and onion stuffing, and a generous selection of bread rolls and wraps (including gluten-free options), it was the perfect way to refuel after an afternoon on the pitch.
We kept things fresh with vibrant sides including a mixed salad and our gourmet coleslaw, adding some crunch and colour to the plate. And for guests who preferred a meat-free option, our homemade grilled vegetable and halloumi skewers were a big hit—served with wraps, a cooling tzatziki, and a punchy sweet chilli sauce. (Vegan? No problem—we left out the halloumi to keep it plant-based and delicious.)
Everything was served up on stylish wooden disposable crockery, with matching wooden cutlery and napkins—making it easy, eco-conscious, and still looking the part for a fun evening gathering.
There’s something special about events like this: great food, a relaxed setting, and a mix of friends and family all enjoying time together. It was a joy to be part of it.
If you’re planning your own summer get-together, whether it’s a sports day, party, or just a family catch-up, Hog Roast Petersfield would love to bring the flavour.
