Special Catering By Hog Roast Edinburgh

Hog Roast EdinburghEdinburgh is quite unlike any other city. Few others in Europe or even the world can boast having a mountaintop castle or a volcano in the heart of the city. So, when it comes to catering and events here we at Hog Roast Edinburgh reckon you need to go equally distinct.

That is why we provide the nation’s best hog roast experience for your events. It could be a wedding out of McEwan Hall, a corporate event out of the International Conference Centre, or your own private party at home or in a booked venue of your choice, our dining is going to provide a unique experience that matches to the occasion and setting.

Authentic Hog Roast Dining

Hog Roast EdinburghThe hog roast is a unique dish of its own, purely on the basis of its unique cooking style. With the traditional hog roast, you have a whole pig placed on a spit atop a fire pit or burner. The spit then turns for many hours – for ours, around 6-8 – allowing the meat inside to create a baste and get extra juicy and tender with every single turn. It means no dry bites anywhere in your roast, and also a perfect balance of crisp texturing with tender meat as the skin outside gets a lovely charring from the fire, turning it an excellent golden-bronze hue with plenty of crunch and flavour.

This style of roasting has been popular all around the world for centuries. For long, it was a regular sight at great cultural celebrations and events, but the set-up and space required means that it has largely gone by the wayside for the modern event. That is, until, your team at Hog Roast Edinburgh sought to provide it in its authentic style for your events.

We pride ourselves on being able to conduct the authentic spit roast experience on site at your event. Our mobile roasting machines recreate the traditional spit, allowing guests to take in the immense spectacle during your event as we set to work cooking right the way through the day. This way, you get not only a light bit of entertainment to go with your event, but you are also going to get even better tastes and a more unique dining experience as we’ll serve fresh from the whole roasted pig. There is little else quite like it in dining, and its traditional style fits right in at home with the gothic setting of Edinburgh’s Old Town!
