The Hog Roast Company
A Little About Us

What Makes The Hog Roast Company the Right Choice for your Hog-Roast or BBQ Caterer?

Hog Roast Pioneers: We pioneered the first DIY spit roast service in 2000. We are a well established family run business with an annual history of providing food and outstanding service for large and small functions. We have catered for events as large as 5,000 people.

Chosen: Out of all the caterers in the UK we were chosen to work with TV Celebrity Chef Brian Turner in London on a charity promotion job which required all the experience and expertise of our staff and CE approved equipment in order to cook and serve 840 breakfast rolls in just 2 hours.

Reach: We cater for Hog Roast functions either indoors or outdoors in Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Kent, London, Wiltshire and Dorset. With easy access to M3, M25, M4, M11, M1, M25 we are never very far away. We always try our best to accommodate your requirements and with our experience in the business we are often able to refer a trustworthy Hog-Roast specialist in your area if we are not able to serve you ourselves.

Delicious Roasts: Our business is about quality. We use the best pigs, high quality equipment and refrigerated vehicles so that we can comply with the strictest Food & Hygiene Regulations. One of the criteria for working for so many high profile people is the ability to be reliable, equipped properly and fully insured. Rest assured that you are dealing with a fully insured and recognised family business that takes catering seriously.

The Best Hog Machines: Our custom-made stainless-steel barbecues and spit roast machines cook to perfection whether it's a large formal occasion or a smaller casual affair. With the purpose built CE approved hog roast rotisseries we can offer a variety of meats from Lamb to Turkey, Wild Boar to Venison, allowing flexible catering for what you really need.

Stick with us to avoid the cowboys: It's a sad fact that many of the individuals that offer Hog-Roasts for events are actually part-timers operating out of a lock up garage using unrefrigerated vans and cobbled-together roasting machines. These operations do not pay taxes, have no insurance or food hygiene certificates. As well as posing a real health risk to your guests these guys have a nasty habit of disappearing with your deposit ... we've stepped in to save the day at dozens of events where this has happened.

Value Prices: If you call around you'll find our prices are very competitive but you'll probably be able to find someone who will offer you a cheaper bargain basement job. Bear in mind you will be inviting your Hog-Roast Caterer into your home or, at least your garden to feed your friends and family. Refrigeration, top quality equipment, experienced staff and quality pigs have an established market rate. We find our customers are happy to receive top quality experience at a realistic price rather than worry about which corners have been cut to provide a supposed bargain rate.

Able to Handle any Size of Event: The Hog Roast Company is one of a group of family run companies offering catering, equipment hire and other event services. Our shared resources mean we draw upon a huge pool of equipment beyond the dreams of most caterers. Our full time staff, warehouse, refrigerated vehicle fleet and huge inventory of catering equipment mean that we are self-reliant and ready for any event challenge.

Busy Summer Season: Even in winter, bookings are being taken every day for the summer season. We have 40 seasonal staff available, 20 spit-roast machines and the ability to cater for many events per week. Even still our capacity is limited. Good quality caterers are in high demand during the peak summer months so we strongly advise you to book early and therefore also benefiting from our early booking discount.
