The start of the year is the perfect time to get booking your parties and events for 2025. Whether you’re organising a birthday party, graduation event, wedding reception, or corporate away day, you’ll find that venues and caterers tend to get booked up in advance, so now is the perfect time to get your choices locked down.
When it comes to catering your 2025 party, you may be spoilt for choice. Here at The Roasting Pig, we firmly believe that a delicious whole hog roast is the perfect choice for any shindig, and here’s why:
Feeds a large crowd
Let’s start with one of the main benefits. If your guests are a hungry bunch, or if you’ve got a large guest list, then a hog roast goes a long way. And we mean a long way. One 50kg hog from The Roasting Pig can feed up to 300 guests, and whatever you don’t get through on the day is yours to take home as luxury leftovers.
Unique option
Here at The Roasting Pig, we also offer such catering favourites as stone-baked pizza, pulled-pork, and carvery meats, but there’s just something unique and special about a hog roast that really makes an event. Not only is it a great centrepiece and talking point for the day, it’s also a memorable meal that your guests will want to tell their friends about.
Budget Friendly
We all know that the cost of living isn’t cheap at the moment, and chances are you’ll want to make your event budget go as far as possible. Luckily, hog roast hire is a cost-effective option when it comes to feeding a large group and making sure everyone leaves full. And if you’re looking to really save money, you can hire the equipment and be your own chef.
Available inside or outside
The great thing about a gas-powered hog roast oven is that you don’t need to be near an electricity point. This makes hog roast catering a truly versatile option that can be set up in venues old or new, inside or outside. This means that regardless of your venue type, or the time of year of your party, a delicious hog roast is always possible.
Perfect for mingling
If you want to arrange a party where your guests feel relaxed and are free to mingle, then a hog roast has you covered. Say goodbye to seating plans and let your guests enjoy a freshly cooked pig, along with a selection of sumptuous sides, all served buffet style. This is a particular benefit for corporate events where you want to make sure your guests can socialise and network.
Hassle-free
Lastly, what makes a hog roast from The Roasting Pig a really great choice is that it’s completely hassle free. Our expert serving team do all the work. We transport everything, cook, carve, serve and clean up after ourselves. We can supply extras such as plates and cutlery if you wish, and even a marquee if required. This leaves you free to simply arrive, and enjoy your guests’ company.
