Hog & Boar are a Midlands-based live-fire catering company. Everything we cook — the hog, the sides, the finishing — happens over open flame, at your venue, in front of your guests. The fire isn't a gimmick; it's the format.
Live-fire catering is any catering where the main cooking happens over an open flame, on site, in view of your guests. That includes whole-hog roasts, asado-style lamb, fire-cooked vegetables, smoked sides and over-flame finishing.
Done well, it becomes the centrepiece of the event — the smell, the heat, the carving station all draw guests in.
Barn weddings, marquee weddings, garden weddings and country-estate weddings across Warwickshire, Worcestershire, Staffordshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire — all natural homes for live-fire catering.
Brand activations and corporate hospitality across the Midlands increasingly request live fire as the visual hook. We build styled fires, carving stations and service flows designed to be photographed.
Fully insured, risk-assessed, with proper fire-management equipment and trained staff. We work with venues across the Midlands and have the documentation venues need to sign off.
