The Gourmet Hog Roast Company Ethos & Values
The company holds firm to its core values of bringing the traditional cooking styles of the UK, Mediterranean and African continent. We are fanatical about customer service, and are firm believers that the service received is as important as the taste of the food.
The Founding of The Gourmet Hog Roast Company
Founded in 2012 by Nick and Marco, The Gourmet Hog Roast Company began with humble origins in Wimbledon.
Both founders shared a passion for barbecuing for friends and family, leading them to create a catering company specializing in hog roasts and barbecues.
They identified a gap in the market for a high-quality service that offered delicious pork, avoiding dry meat served in cheap bread rolls.
Marco
Marco, a passionate South African, operated a small olive grove in Italy where he produced traditional cold-pressed olive oil.
Each year, he travelled to Italy to hand-pick the olives and manufacture the oil using traditional methods.
Nick
Nick spent seven years working alongside a pig farmer in Lincolnshire, where he developed a deep appreciation for fine meat production.
He was eager to bring this passion to their new catering venture.
Fast forward 12 years, and the company now boasts teams stretching across the UK, delivering the same high-quality hog roasts and barbecues that Nick and Marco have provided for over a decade.
They work closely with local butchers and suppliers to ensure that every event offers an excellent customer experience and delicious food.
The booking process felt a little long-winded at times, but we completely appreciate that the team needs to gather the right information to ensure everything runs smoothly.
On the day, the weather was absolutely horrendous, but the team ploughed through with genuine smiles on their faces. They arrived on time, served on time, and their positive attitude never wavered despite the conditions.
The quality of the food was superb — everyone commented on how delicious it was. The service was equally impressive: the guys were brilliant, friendly, caring, and a pleasure to have on-site. They represented the company exceptionally well.
We would definitely recommend the Hog Roast Company to friends and colleagues. Please pass on our thanks to the whole team — they did a fantastic job and helped make our event a real success.
Our 50 guests were blown away with the amazing taste.
Service was faultless
So nice to be able to praise such companies that really do go above and beyond.
To also hear that they travelled nearly 2 hours to do all of this and still be perfect & nothing was a problem.
Plentiful servings too, we did not go hungry!
Great work guys
Keep up the great work.

There is a variety of menu options available to choose from with care taken to cater for allergens.
Peter was professional and was a great communicator. He let us know food was going to be available early if we wanted it which worked out really well.
Thank you so much for making food easy on our big day. Would not hesitate to book again for a large event in the future.
