With our centre of operations just south of our home city of Dublin, our approach towards event catering, from lavish wedding parties through to high-class corporate events, has allowed us to not only provide many with the finest food they have ever tasted, but has facilitated our growth in knowledge as regards the places and people found within our glorious Ireland.

So please share in this great culinary experience give us a call and book hog roast caterer to provide the catering for your party or special event.

Its not all about pigs we can also spit roast beef, they cook absolutely beautifully on our specially converted chicken spits cooking up to 10 large strip loins or 15 ribs of prime Irish beef. Why not get your own cuts of local beef and we will come along cook and serve them for you with a selection of salads and deserts. There is no limit to the different meats you can spit roast, my personal favorite is spit roasted lamb, with rosemary and mint, then rubbed with fresh honey 30 minutes before serving.

From the very outset of our lowly beginings, when we were still reveling in the sheer taste heaven of hog roasts ourselves, we knew that Irish farms had the perfect produce to go on our spits. Where many, at that time in particular, saw commercial benefit and advantage in sourcing ingredients from abroad, our direction of service married perfectly with the concept of buying local, even though the costs were understandably higher in some cases. With over 20 years history of using only the best ingredients and organic whenever possible, our customers have been catered for with produce that has come from Irish earth and from Irish farmers, which gives the best taste, no question. Having built up fantastic working relationships with local farmers rearing livestock, the raw ingredients obtained by these fellows, completely outstrip, in terms of quality, the produce which many other caterers source cheaply from overseas. Allowing us the freedom to expand and deliver at every event, the reliability afforded to us on behalf of our local producers has given us the confidence and ability to create simply sumptuous and superb food, time and time again.

Having noted the great taste of meat which has been spit and hog roasted, it was our burning desire to bring that taste to the plates of our countrymen which provided the drive necessary to achieve what we have achieved today. Arriving on the catering market eager to deliver such culinary brilliance was not as easy as one may have thought, however. As with our competitors today, back when we started spit roast catering, it was apparent that the equipment available, such as hog roast machines, were not up to the job, so to speak. Badly built, unreliable and unsightly, the machines on the market indeed allowed a hog to be roasted. However, the failings in so many critical areas created a major issue for us; that their structural inabilities, such as the main structures being liable to rusting as well as major joints in the construction being easily corroded, meant that we simply couldn’t utilize the services of such second rate machinery at the events we were to cater for.

A major factor in this instance and regard is time. Increasingly, in our more modern society, people find taking ‘time out’ more difficult than they used to. With many demands which tax the lives of all of us, taking time to enjoy each others company along with sensational food is something that we should all treasure. With increasing job demands that lead to stresses in our lives, along with our various commitments outside the arena of employment, why should the catered events which we enjoy not be the finest and most sensational that they can be? Before starting our hog roast catering enterprise, we had found ourselves continually disappointed at the standard of food at catered events. As a firm it is central to our working ethos that the food we prepare, alongside our service at said events, is of a pristine nature, with no compromise a major ingredient in everything we do. That was how it was in the beginning and that is how it is today.

With our insistence in quality combined with our love for our locality, we embarked upon the most ambitious element of our company’s celebrated history; the design and construction of our very own spit roast and hog roaster machines. Drawing on our engineering background, the machines which we use and sell today are the product of a journey of discovery, tempered with years of dedication to brilliance.
Our culinary abilities have brought us the opportunity to make the most of the excellent nature of our city and, indeed, our country. With everyone always up for good banter, there are few things in life that can enhance a social situation in our land like a top rate hog roast. Bringing people together through the visual spectacle of a turning hog, the aromas and taste, whether for a formal or an informal event, will put smiles on everyone’s faces.  

Our hog roast catered events have been the recipients of unanimous praise on countless occasions, something that allows us to work with pride and to have confidence in our vast array of menu options. Providing first rate, local and the most awe inspiring meats and ingredients, combined with our ‘in-house’ designed machines with which the meat is prepared gives our customers choice, value and most of all, superb tasting food that is sure to please the most discerning of palates.
