East Yorkshire is a lively place, famous for inspiring art exhibits, quaint market towns and incredible nature spots. But just like everyone else, the people here also love having a laugh – and what better place to do so than at a comedy club?
Comedy clubs are great for everyone. For comics, experienced or otherwise, it’s a great chance to learn how to work a crowd, and for the ticket holders? Well, hopefully, they’ll leave in great spirits with some hilarious jokes to share! But it’s even better for Hog Roast Marton, as we get to listen in on the stand-up comics while doing what we love most: cooking!
Now, it’s been a minute since Hog Roast Marton was asked to cater for a comedy club night, so when Evan invited us to serve our Southern Slow Roast Menu at his nearby comedy club ahead of last weekend’s show, we immediately jumped at the offer.
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Evan a handful of times in the past, so he knew what to expect from our team and had every faith that they could pull off a fantastic food service with little guidance or interference, which is the hallmark of a great caterer.
On the day of the event, Hog Roast Marton rocked up to the club several hours before the doors opened to ticket holders and quickly set to work on preparing the buffet.
Just in time for the guests to start arriving in the early hours of the evening, Hog Roast Marton had prepared the food, and everything was ready and waiting to be eaten in chafing dishes and bamboo bowls. Guests had their pick of our delicious Texan 24-hour beef brisket, Cajun-spiced whole roast chickens, BBQ pork butt, and BBQ-pulled jackfruit rolls with crispy mixed fries, fresh salad and coleslaw side dishes.
After piling their plates high with the aromatic food, the guests found their seats, and shortly after, the comics took to the stage.
The combination of Hog Roast Marton’s phenomenal food and the side-splitting comedy ensured the guests had a fantastic night, which the client was very happy about!
