Spitting Pig Pricing & Costs

Pricing for suppliers

Prices Start at
£1
Maximum price

All of our menus are completely customisable and created bespoke for every event. We don’t work from set packages, as pricing is entirely dependent on a number of factors including your event date, location, guest numbers, menu choices and availability. Because every wedding and event is so different, costs can vary significantly depending on seasonality, travel, staffing requirements and the level of service you’re looking for. For this reason, we’re unable to provide a standard price range upfront. What we can do is work closely with you to design a menu and catering plan that suits your exact vision, requirements and budget. Once we have a few details, we’ll put together a tailored quote that reflects your event perfectly and ensures you’re getting the best possible value.

100% recommend – great food, friendly service!
Spitting Pig catered our wedding in June – the service and food was absolutely fantastic. On the day, they arrived on time and got everything set up very seamlessly, the smell alone of the BBQ cooking had all our guests (and us) salivating. The food absolutely delivered and was delicious – generous portions too! Steve and team were so friendly and it was lovely just chatting to them- they clearly love what they're doing and the passion shows in the service and food!

Everything was so well communicated...
Everything was so well communicated from start to finish. When The Spitting Pig team arrived on the day, they were friendly, organised, and made setting up look effortless. Chris the chef was fantastic, and the food was absolutely stunning - the meat literally melted in the mouth! The sides of coleslaw, corn on the cob, and mac and cheese were the perfect additions.

Will definitely find an excuse to use again
I could not recommend Spitting Pig enough to people! Absolutely fantastic and pure professionals. When approaching the wedding, the chef contacted me and I had full confidence in him. He was easy to talk to, experienced and knowledgeable. On the day, the presentation of the food was one of the highlights of the day, the grazing table looked amazing. Will definitely find an excuse to use the spitting pig again. Team on the day were also extremely happy and friendly and kept food back for us!

FAQs

What exactly is Spitting Pig?

Spitting Pig is the team that brings the wow factor to your wedding food. We specialise in premium hog roasts and beautifully curated menus cooked fresh on site. Think theatre‑style cooking, incredible aromas drifting through your venue, and guests gathering around with that “this smells unreal” excitement. We’re relaxed, friendly, and polished — the perfect mix for a modern wedding.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Unique, Bespoke, Diverse, Fun & Tasteful!

Do you only do hog roasts?

Nope! We’ve got canapés, feasting menus, BBQs, grazing tables, evening food — basically, if it tastes good at a wedding, we probably make it.

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Always make sure that when designing your Wedding Invitations, you don’t forget to ask guests to RSVP with dietary requirement! This will help you save time and make things easier for you in the long run!

Is this suitable for a luxury or high‑end wedding?

Definitely. Our setup is sleek, our service is polished, and our presentation is beautiful. We work in barns, estates, manors, marquees, tipis, and modern venues — and our style fits them all. Couples love that we bring a relaxed, joyful atmosphere without compromising on quality or elegance.

Do you cater for vegans, veggies, and dietary needs?

Absolutely. We take dietary needs seriously — and creatively. Our vegan and vegetarian dishes are proper meals, not afterthoughts. Gluten‑free, dairy‑free, halal, allergies… we make sure every guest feels included and well fed.

How does everything work on the day?

We arrive early, set up quietly, and start cooking fresh on site. Your guests get the full sensory experience — the aroma, the theatre, the anticipation. When it’s time to serve, our team handles everything with warmth and professionalism. Afterwards, we clear down discreetly and leave the space spotless. You won’t have to lift a finger.

Can we customise the menu?

Of course! Want canapés + hog roast + BBQ sides + a grazing table? Done. Prefer a more formal plated feel? Also possible. We love helping couples build a menu that feels like them — fun, generous, and full of flavour.

What is the food of love?

Our Anti Pasti boards can be served for special sharing boards for intimate settings or an a more fun and interactive grazing table for sharing! Not only do they add vibrancy to your set up, they also include a bit of something for everyone!

Why do couples love booking you?

Because our food becomes part of the atmosphere. It’s generous, delicious, beautifully presented, and creates a moment guests remember. Couples tell us they love the relaxed luxury, the friendly team, and the way we make everything feel effortless. It’s catering that feels joyful — not formal or fussy.
