A Thursday In The Life Of A Hog Roast Caterer

A Thursday in The Life Of A Hog Roast Caterer

Hello and welcome to another hog blog brought to you by the hog roast caterer team.  Its Thursday today and whilst I have no catering events to do today I am very busy preparing things for the weekend as myself and the other hog chefs have lots of events to cater for this weekend.

Thursday is always a good day to get things sorted out for the next hectic weekend.  Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday seem to be our busiest days in the office for enquiries coming through via email and telephone but by Thursday things in the office are a little quieter which gives us a chance to prepare for the weekends events. 

Preparing for the events ahead can include all sorts of tasks.  Today I need to visit the local farmers market to pick up some last minute ingredients that I will need for an event tomorrow (apples for apple sauce and tomatoes for our Mediterranean salad)  then I need to do a full check of the staff Rota for Saturday and Sundays events and decide who will be doing what tasks at the events.  When these tasks are done I will be doing a final checklist to make sure we have the correct items for the first event (enough napkins, correct type of crockery, enough uniforms etc) then I will start to load up the Hog Roast Caterer van so I will ready to set off tomorrow and travel to my first event.
