The Big Southampton Hog Roast Event
Welcome to Dorset Hog Roast and BBQ's - Southampton
We can be seen here on a monthly basis serving people with our fantastic hog roasts, some of our free range pigs are sourced from Hampshire, so if you taste one of our hog roasts in Southampton you’ll be pleased to know you are eating local produce
So we can provide the most succulent and tender hog roasts possible, we roast the pig for up to 12 hours. This produces ‘pulled pork’ which literally falls off the bone and the crackling is also as good as it gets!
View our Southampton customers recommendations (yes, real people!) who all praise our fantastic hog roast.
Because we roast our hogs for twice as long as most other caterers, it would be impractical to cook from start on site so we start spit roasting at our premises then transport the roasting hog in the oven to the event where it continues roasting until serving.
This process is also much less intrusive because we do not need all day access however the guests still experience the unique sight and aroma of roasting hog.
Due to the use of a top quality marquee, the hog roast experience can still be guaranteed if it rains. The hog can be roasted outside then taken indoors for serving.
It is important that you let us have an accurate guest number so that a suitable hog can be provided to ensure that all your guests are well fed.
A 45kg pig will feed about 120 people, it will also ensure lots of seconds!
