Outdoor cooking is our expertise, so whether you’re hankering for a suckling pig, lamb spit roast, rotisserie chicken or even BBQ catering, Gourmet Hog Roast is the spit roast hire catering company you’ve been looking for.

Satisfying customers for nearly a decade, we provide sumptuous feasts for clients in and around the Essex area and throughout the South East. Our food preparation and presentation meet the highest standards, all served up by a friendly and professional hospitality team. Our service really is second to none.

Our company began the way all good catering companies do: Through a shared love of food, in our case, traditional age-old cooking methods. At the heart of Gourmet Hog Roast our co-founders, each from different parts of the globe, wanted to transport the cooking styles of the Mediterranean and African continent to the UK market.

This international influence is coupled with a love of fresh local produce, ingredients and local farmers. One of our founders, Nick, has nearly a decade’s worth of experience working with a Lincolnshire pig farmer before we founded Gourmet Hog Roast, so we can guarantee the finest quality meats, only sourced from pre-approved farms.

Don’t hesitate to give us a ring. Call our dedicated customer service team on 0800 048 5160 or email us at info@gourmet-hog-roast.co.uk

Looking for a wedding feast near Essex? Call our hog roast caterers

Weddings are all about food, friends, and family. Buffet-style catering is always a great way to share food on special occasions, but so often lacks any real flare, inspiration or excitement. If you’re looking for something a bit more exciting, having a whole pig or lamb roasting for six to seven hours never fails to impress. With our infamous brambly apple sauce, fresh crusty bread, roasted potatoes, and popular crackling, it always manages to hit the spot. Sometimes the simplest things in life are the best.

Our spit roast catering company not only specializes in traditional hog or lamb roasts but wedding BBQ catering too. So, if traditional hog roast is simply not your style, our BBQ catering options are equally tempting. Infused with that distinctive BBQ charcoal touch, we have plenty of meat-based and vegetarian and vegan options, to satisfy the dietary requirements of any guest. Our lovely team of chefs and hospitality staff has many years’ worth of wedding catering experience, so that’s one less thing to worry about on your big day.
