About our Hertfordshire Hog Roast Catering Company

aboutus-168x300Spitting Pig Hertfordshire are the premier hog roasting company local to Stevenage. We have been hog roasting for ten years as well as catering for many years longer and have the skill, experience and know how to make your event a day to remember. The one thing that sets us apart from other hog roasters is our approach to our work. We actually enjoy what we do and so do our staff. When we cater for you, it’s personal. We take great pride in what we do and that is why we have so many repeat bookings and recommendations.

Simply The Best Hog Roasts

Catering for private parties, weddings or corporate events is not just about turning up on the day, cooking a pig and getting out of there as quick as you can which some caterers seem to think is the way to work, but actually talk to the client, listen to what they want and advise if necessary, and above all work within your own capabilities. Our approach with the staff we have, is do jobs properly, act professional and have the right staff for the right jobs and that is why we feel we are the best choice for hog roasts in Hertfordshire.

Fancy a hog roast, but like the idea of cooking and carving your self, let us deliver a machine to you (with or without a pig) and you can take control of your own party and impress your friends with your chef skills.

This really is a very cost effective way to cater for friends and family at almost any occasion and its so easy. Just let us deliver your machine with a hog racked and prepared, ready to cook or if you are supplying your own pig, just the machine and pole to stick it on. You can forget slaving away in the kitchen for hours on end, preparing buffet food and nibbles and then being too tired to enjoy the day. Just sit back and let the pig slowly cook then simply carve the hog and enjoy the succulent and delicious tender meat. Add a few simple salads or even potatoes and you have a meal which will leave your guests fully satisfied. When we deliver the machine and gas we will talk you through how to operate the machine safely and correctly and if you are supplying your own pig, we will explain how to rack the pig ensuring you fully understand before we leave.

Spitting Pig Hertfordshire has become the first choice for hog roast catering whether you require a simple hog roast in Hitchin, or a lavish wedding feast with canapés, starters, mouth watering hog roast with salads and trimmings followed by desserts and drinks. As we mentioned earlier our passion is food and we would not serve you what we would not want ourselves, so it’s not all about costs and making as much money as we can as quick as we can but supplying the best meat, being that bit more creative and bringing that passion and desire to your event to help make your day a day you will remember and this does not need to come at a premium cost as you will see from our competitive and creative menu’s on our Spitting Pig Hertfordshire web site. Once you have initially contacted us we will advise you and help you choose a menu and package to suit you.

We will work closely with you and other companies that may be involved with your event to ensure that the event runs smoothly and to plan. Our hog roast experience in helping you make the right decisions is what helps make your day the one you want it to be and on many occasions customers are not really sure of what they want and need that expertise and guidance to make the right decisions. Once a menu and package is decided we require a small deposit to confirm the booking and will send you a sales receipt outlining your menu and service that we will offer. On the day of your event, we always bring a catering marquee with lights if needed and serving tables and are completely self sufficient.

We believe part of the fun of having a hog roast is the spectacle of having the pig cooking from start to finish before your eyes and the aroma that will fill your garden will help make the occasion special. As we mentioned, we have morals and believe in ethical farming practices. Our pork is all English and outdoor bred and mainly sourced from farms in the surrounding counties. The pigs are free to roam the fields and live as natural life as possible. We believe the proof is in the taste and from experience we know we are right. A happy hog in natural surroundings, living like a hog should, produces fantastic meat and scrumptious crackling. It tastes sweet and is moist and mouth watering. Our lamb is more local, normally from, a small village near our base and is just lip smacking delicious and if we are lucky depending on the time of year, our butchers mum produces her own lamb which are just unbelievable. As for chicken, turkey or beef or any other meat you may be interested in where ever possible it will be free range, English and of the finest quality.

At Spitting Pig Hertfordshire we believe we have the balance right.  It is important to us that the animals and birds we use are ethically farmed and have had as good as a life as possible. Remember the proof of buying quality and ethically farmed animals is in the taste and does not have to come at a premium price. We pay a little more for our meat but are happy with the prices we charge which we feel are more than competitive.

As well as specialising in spit roast catering we provide a delicious range of finger and fork buffet’s as well as BBQ’S so if you are looking for something to nibble on in the evening to keep your guests hunger at bay after a hog roast wedding, Spitting Pig Hertfordshire can accommodate your every need. We can also provide a range of crockery, cutlery and glasses to hire.
