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.

Ghr Nick

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.

We used the Gourmet Hog Roast company for a family event for 34 people in Beaconsfield, Bucks. The team were extremely professional and helpful, the food was excellent in both quality and quantity. The whole process was seamless and stress free from start to finish, leaving us with nothing to do but enjoy the event. We would definitely use the company again. Highly recommended!

Lovely food. Fresh, tasty, even brought a huge bowl of crackling! Really nice duo that came and catered for us. Absolutely no negative feedback, and we would use them again! Our event was at New Holland, Barrow Upon Humber.

These guys came to my home in Far Forest, outside Bewdley in Worcestershire for my son’s 21st. Nothing was too much trouble. They were polite, prompt, tidy and most importantly the food was delicious. Would highly recommend. They even put up with quite a few family dogs trying to get in on the action! Would give them 6 stars if I could.

We ordered a full Italian hog roast for between 50 -60 covers for my 80th birthday - wow! there was enough for my next birthday too! The antipasta starter selection was great too but the hog roast was the star of the show, perfectly cooked with all the trimmings, hot and on time. The roasties were'nt bad either!.
Well done you guys for keeping a young man and his large family very happy.👌😊

We had Gourmet Hog Roast cater for our wedding near Ely (Cambridgeshire) recently and they were great. We went for the classic hog roast package and then cheese toasties for evening food. They also had plenty of options to cover all our guests dietary requirements including vegan and gluten free. We were really happy with the quality of the food and the service on the day. All our guests were saying how much they enjoyed it too. Would definitely recommend.

Location: Shirrell Heath, nr Bishops Waltham, Hampshire.
Tim and Meg attended all day cooking the hog onsite with the added extras we had ordered, a salad and coleslaw. They also provided the plates and cutlery (both disposable but not cheap plastic ones) and the whole event went off really well, despite periods of heavy rainfall, the whole set up under their own marquee which gave a very professional image. The roasted hog was succulent and fed 50 very easily with plenty left over. They also offered vegan and gluten free alternatives.
Highly recommended.
