When people think of a hog roast, they often picture a traditional setup—carved pork, apple sauce and of course, our delicious crispy crackling. And while that classic style is still a firm favourite, there’s a new trend making waves at parties, weddings, and events across the UK: street food style hog roasts. By combining the crowd-pleasing appeal of slow-roasted pork with the fun, bold flavours of street food, you can serve up something that’s not only delicious but also refreshingly different. So, here are some options you may want to consider with Hog Roast Greenwich.
You could go for slow-pulled pork, cooked until it’s tender and juicy, then shredded and seasoned to perfection. Wrap it up in warm flatbreads or soft tortillas and add vibrant fillings like crunchy coleslaw and chipotle mayo or BBQ sauce. Or, why not make your catering even more unique by allowing your guests to customise their own meal. Set up a street food-style bar with different bread options, toppings, sauces, and sides. People can build their own wraps or buns just the way they like them. Not only is it interactive and fun, but it also caters to a range of tastes—including veggie options like grilled halloumi or jackfruit.
Street food is all about getting creative with different tastes and flavours—and a hog roast is the perfect base to get creative with global twists. Think Mexican-style pork with a squeeze of lime, a touch of chilli, and a dollop of guacamole, or go for Korean BBQ pulled pork topped with crunchy sesame slaw and a hit of gochujang mayo. You could lean into Caribbean vibes with jerk-spiced pork and fluffy rice, or serve up a comforting Southern-style option with creamy mac ‘n’ cheese. It really is down to you. The Hog Roast Greenwich team will sit down with you in the weeks and months beforehand to get your menu confirmed and ensure you’re totally happy with all of the finer details.
The best part? A street food style hog roast is incredibly flexible. It works just as well at a rustic barn wedding as a corporate summer gathering, Therefore, get in touch with Hog Roast Greenwich to secure your booking.
