Who would’ve thought that during our time of skimping and saving that the humble piggy would be helping to see us through? Research conducted by The Independent shows that throughout this year, the hog roast has made a comeback, as companies can feed hundreds of people for a fraction of the price of a sit down meal. The social factor is also a big turn-on, with colleagues able to mingle easily, and have time to bond with each other in a time when morale in companies may be particularly low – a great social opportunity for those who work so hard for a company to be rewarded and feel appreciated. Big Roast can cater for large or small parties, at business or residential addresses, and are always delighted to be involved in local events. Healthy options are always available and the desserts always go down a storm, and are the perfect treat for a year’s hard slog.
It is also celebrities who seem to have cottoned on to this practical and hassle-free way of entertaining- Zoe Ball and Kate Moss have both favoured Medieval style bashes over formal dinners- a sure sign of a good idea!!
At the end of last month we celebrated the birthdays of our very own Big Roast babies, little Louis and Zoe, and so what were we to do but hold a party. When it comes to learning how to do it properly, we thought, no better way than start them young- and so we embarked on teaching them how to hold a hog roast London style! We sent out invitations nice and early, and went about selecting the salads that would be served with our meat, making sure that the varied tastes of our guests would be catered for, and set about planning the entertainment. A balloon sculptor was found, with promises of monkeys, racing cars and giant cartoon characters (and this was just for the adults).
Cakes were baked, pineapples cored for the baby pina coladas, and decorations were streamed around the house. As the day of the party approached, the sun shined and spirits were high; it also seemed that a few of our friends were getting similar party-throwing ideas, as the ‘how to hold a hog roast London style’ tips spread like wild fire. The food went down a treat- we’re already looking forward to next year’s celebration!
Big Roast may be the original supplier of pig roasts in London but the Japanese, innovative as ever, have created a pig rodeo. Not as tasty as a wild boar roast the Japanese now televise those brave souls willing to take the metaphorical bull by the horns and literally take a pig by it’s flank and try not to fly into the mud as a hog runs round it’s sty.
Big Roast, although an advocate for the spectacular flavour of a hog roast, would never want an animal to be caused unnecessary pain. However, we have been reassured that no pig was hurt during the making of this, or any other, broadcast. In fact injuries all round have been keep to a minimum with pride, and a little dignity, being caused the most damage. One hapless contestant did receive a nasty bite, requiring stitches, and another received a bruised eye when pig and contestant ran into the sty fence. Thankfully the big was unharmed.
Big Roast would further like to reassure any potential customers that, unlike the little fellas in the video below, our hogs and lambs are reared to the highest standards. Provided by organic online butcher English Meat and sourced from a family owned farm in Essex the provenance of our meat is guaranteed. We use only the best meat to provide the quality of flavour for our pig roasts, lamb roasts and spit roasts.
For more information on the provenance of the meat provided by Big Roasts you can follow the link – our meat -, visit English Meat’s website or contact us using our online enquiry form. We hope that you enjoy the pig rodeo video below. Remember no animals were hurt during the production of this video. When you laugh you can giggle safe in the knowledge that you are only laughing at those silly enough to try and ride a pig.

Big Roast would like to congratulate Jake and Freya and wish them all the luck in the world as they begin the rest of their lives as husband and wife. Our chefs almost shed a tear as they were on hand to provide an evening hog roast buffet on the patio terrace of this beautiful Ascot country house.
Big Roast have provided hog roasts for some large events, some grand events and some big events but this has to be Big Roasts most elegant roasting event. We sent our best roaster, head chef Steven, to this hog roast in Ascot and his expert skill was put to task as he seasoned, marinated, carved and created a boar roast banquet fit for this spectacular setting.
There was a few questions about Big Roast attending this wedding reception. Initial problems with the venue were going to stop us from providing a roast in the evening with the venue unhappy with allowing an outside caterer onto their premises. However the happy couple were very keen on having a big roast service. Working with Jake, who had more than enough to think about, we made a deal that allowed Big Roast to provide its delicious best.
Big Roast would like to congratulate the beautiful couple again and thank them for letting us be part of the happiest day of there life.
Big Roast can cater for celebrations of any size, both big and small.

Big Roast hopes that all of its hog roasts are greeted with vowels like “Oh!” and “Ah!” but this pig roast was actually for the Vowels. Based in Kent this spit roast was yet another sensational success with 75 happy customers ready to feast on our traditional roasting flavours.
A whole hog can feed up to 120 people so with 75 guests I had to warn the Vowels that this Kent event would have plenty of meat for everyone. They were not at all concerned with creating a real boar roast banquet though and supplemented the slow roasted pig with three of Big Roast’s more substantial salad options. Coupled with our beautifully carved pork, served on a soft white roll and with our organic apple sauce, Big Roast served a classic potato salad and a rice salad with mixed peppers, garden peas, sweet corn, sultanas & fresh herbs.
Big Roast was also on hand to provide china plates and stainless steel cutlery for this Bromley hog roast. Sometimes the thought of having to clean up can spoil a party so Big Roast always endeavours to take away as much of your event stress as possible. Big Roast can provide disposable plates and cutlery as well as the high quality china that the Vowels decided upon for this Kent roast.
As you can see from the pictures below it was a real mix of ages but everyone seemed to enjoy the food served. Big Roast always makes sure it listens to its customers and really appreciate the feedback we received. We promise to look for anyway we can to improve the service we provide and take everything into consideration. Big Roast would like to thank the Vowels for their hospitality when we came into their home and hope they enjoyed their hog roast service.

Hog roasts are considered by most to be for family events – weddings, birthdays and anniversaries – but Streetcar, the self service pay as you go car hire company, know that Big Roast can cater for corporate events as well. Our hog roast was part of a team building event that we think really helped morale and can’t wait to hear if Streetcar continue with the same enthusiasm as they mustered for our pig roast.
As well as Big Roasts exceptionally good spit roast the employees of Streetcar had a bucking bronco, performers and activities to keep them entertained. Split into three teams, the reds, the blues and the greens, the event was more than a summer party – although there seemed to be plenty of people enjoying themselves. The pictures below show the different team building tasks that were involved including a challenging assault course.
Organising a corporate event is a challenge in itself and Big Roast thinks that this was a real success. Big Roast has provided hog roasts for corporate events on a number of occasions and this was one of the best. Well organised and efficiently run, at no point were any of the staff or service providers unaware of their role. Streetcar staff were consistently taking part in productive, fun activities and all the services brought in for the event, from jugglers to Big Roast chefs, were prepared and ready thanks to expert organisation.
Big Roast would like to thank Streetcar for allowing us to provide the roast for this corporate event. Spit roasts are perfect for employee summer parties, providing a welcome spectacle capable of feeding the whole office. We’d like to extend a special thank you to Kelly for providing Big Roast with all the necessary support for us to provide a pig roast for you. Your positive comments were well appreciated. “Brilliant!”

Hog Roasts on the roof of Work Group’s headquarters may not be flying pigs but it certainly was a spectacular site watching our chef Steve wrestle the wind to create another delicious hog roast event.
Forty three hog roast eaters were on hand to savour the flavour of a hog roast banquet for Work Group’s summer event. Steve, Big Roasts master hog roast cook and creator of our patented hog roast apple sauce, said the wind was a real issue as he prepared, cooked and carved this hog roast on the fifth floor. “The wind caused a real challenge,” Big Roasts’ hog roast master chef claimed, “but I think the event went really well and everyone enjoyed the hog roast.”
As you can see from the pictures Steve was able to keep his cool and manged to cook the whole hog roast with his sun glasses constantly on. The photo’s also show how beautiful the weather was for this roof top hog roast extravaganza. The people at Work Group made the hog roast an absolute delight to cater for. Big Roast likes to make people happy and the meat eaters of Work Group really seemed to enjoy the hog roast. The vegetarians were not disappointed either with Big Roast providing vegetable kebabs served with spicy tomato relish. A meal even the heartiest meat eater would consider becoming a veggie for.
Big Roast finished the hog roast event with a selection of its two favourite deserts, rich chocolate fudge cake and baked lemon cheesecake, a sweet end to a fabulous hog roast event. Again we got some great feedback and would like to thank Work Group for letting us provide the hog roast for their summer event. Hopefully we’ll see you at Christmas. “Everybody loved it! Would definitely use again.”

Hog Roasts have been found in pubs since knight were drinking ale and mead in inns around the country. Big Roast, London’s original hog roast, lamb roast and spit roast company, provided a traditional hog roast last weekend in the Old Red Lion in Staines but this time not to satisfy the general public. Instead Big Roast were cooking up a hog roast banquet for the wonderful guests of a 40th birthday party.
Pub hog roasts don’t come much better than Big Roast’s this weekend. The food looked stunning and was enjoyed by the 100 guests of this huge party. Big Roast would like to wish the man of the moment a very happy birthday and would like to thank him for being such a great host. Our chef really enjoyed serving the friends and family of this excellent celebration. We hope that our Big Roast service lived up to expectations.
Big Roast likes to show off the specticle of the hog roast and has a few pictures from The Old Red Lion event posted below. Happy Birthday again to the birthday boy and we’ve made sure not t use his name so he can continue to claim to be 21 for a few more years.

Hog Roast event are a delicate undertaking that need some time, some skill and some patients to get just right. Big Roast, London’s original hog roast, lamb roast and spit roast company believe the beautiful hog roast in Kingston last weekend lived up to expectation of the residence of this Royal Borough. The food was spectacular to see and delicious to eat, with our chef providing the experience he’s learnt through generations of hog roast cooking.
As you can see from a few Big Roast pictures this delightful garden party was a resounding success. We really enjoyed, meeting, greeting and serving such lovely people. Kingston is famous for being one of only two Royal boroughs in London and Big Roast can see why Anglo Saxon Kings from Edward the Elder to Ethelred the Unready chose to hold his coronation here. A beautiful day with a traditional royal banquet – a hog roast from Big Roast.
Big Roast always looks for room for improvement and really appreciates the comments of our customers. Again we recieved some excellent feedback and some really good advice that we intend to make absolutely sure we’ll use at all our forthcoming hog roast events.
