With the sun finally peeking through the clouds, outdoor events are shifting into high gear – and we at Hog Roast Pilley couldn’t be more thrilled! As much as we love a cosy indoor feast, there’s just something special about firing up our grill under the open sky and serving up our legendary hog roast to hungry crowds.
This past Saturday, South Yorkshire blessed us with a glorious 15-degree day (practically summer, right?), and the local Business Improvement team were over the moon. They had pulled together the first classic car show of the year, featuring a stunning lineup of vintage motors, bustling market stalls, and a mission to boost local businesses; and the sunshine made the day even better. Best of all, ticket sales went towards community improvements – so every bite and every rev of an engine was all for a great cause!
Naturally, Hog Roast Pilley was on hand to keep the crowds fuelled, and wow, did they turn up hungry! Our signature hog roast was an absolute hit, with people queuing up for the tender, juicy, slow-roasted pork we’re famous for. Served in a gluten-free or wholemeal bun with crispy crackling, sage and onion stuffing, and a generous dollop of applesauce, it was the ultimate grab-and-go treat for a day packed with action.
But it’s not just meat-eaters who were impressed! We made sure our veggie and vegan friends weren’t left out by dishing up our mouthwatering BBQ-pulled jackfruit rolls. Smoky, rich, and bursting with flavour, this plant-based delight had even the most dedicated carnivores intrigued.
While our catering dream team, Chris and Kayleigh, worked their magic behind the stall, guests strolled through row upon row of gleaming classic cars, explored market stalls brimming with unique finds, and soaked up the electric atmosphere. It was the perfect blend of roaring engines, delicious food, and feel-good community vibes.
By the end of the event, the organisers couldn’t thank us enough for keeping the crowds happy, full, and energised. As for Hog Roast Pilley, we’re revved up and ready for more! With spring in full swing and summer on the horizon, we can’t wait to bring our sizzling hog roast to even more outdoor events!
