Premium Ingredients

and Varied Dishes

The creation of all of our dishes starts with the careful selection of our ingredients. We have excellent relationships with local food producers who care as much about quality as we do. This ensures that we always have access to the best seasonal ingredients and as much locally sourced produce as possible. We also source our meat exclusively from the most established UK producers who follow ethical and free-range rearing methods.

Our high-quality ingredients are used to create a myriad of different accompaniments to our signature hog roasts, as well as a vast selection of alternative options that will satisfy all tastes, including different meats, and vegetarian and vegan dishes. Even if you choose a very varied menu with multiple dishes, we will still make it all from scratch at your venue before your event. We are proud to say that we have never cut corners in any aspect of our ingredient selection or our food preparation and we never will.

We had Claire and her colleague from the Spitting Pig for our Festival wedding last Saturday. It was an amazing day and the hog roast was delicious and served with love. All of our guests were raving about the hog roast, music and festival vibe. Claire made it so easy for us to relax and enjoy our special day and even parcelled up the leftovers for me to freeze. You could really see that Claire and her colleague enjoyed the day too. I would highly recommend the Spitting Pig for you wedding or any party, totally spot on.

We have hired Spitting Pig twice now in two different venues and both times it has been terrific. Last week we had them for our daughter’s Pre-wedding Dinner which was so much fun. All the staff were great and most helpful. Claire and Darren made everything very easy for us. We had the Alfresco menu with delicious starters, followed by the roast, potatoes and salads and then two desserts. Vegetarians and other food requirements were met very well and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the evening. It was all cleared up without fuss at the end. The team know what they are doing, come and see it all up and clear seamlessly. I would thoroughly recommend Spitting Pig and will probably hire them again on another occasion.

Claire and Darren were brilliant. From planning to execution, w could not recommend them enough. We had the Southern Slow Road menu served to tables on beautiful platters. Our guests were not only blown away by the quality and service of the food we received but were full! Spitting Pig Nottingham stole the show!!

We hired the Spitting Pig for my husbands birthday a couple of days ago. Everything from booking to the day itself was excellent. The food was outstanding and everyone who came went home with food coma. There wasn’t a single negative comment.
We were so delighted we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and use them again. Thank you so much, in particular the staff on the day who worked very hard and made our guests feel very special.

What a fabulous service from the Spitting Pig hog roast service. We recently hired Spitting Pig Hog Roast Service for my husband’s 60th birthday party, and they exceeded all our expectations! From the moment they arrived, their team was professional, friendly, and incredibly efficient. The hog roast was cooked to perfection, with succulent, flavourful meat that had all our guests raving. The vegetarians and vegans were all fully catered for and also had a wonderful time! The presentation was fantastic, and the service was impeccable throughout the event. Thank you, Spitting Pig, for making our celebration truly memorable. We highly recommend them for any special occasion!
