- Spit Roast Catering Bloemfontein covers carvery-style spit roasting: hog roasts, rolled joints, rotisserie chickens and mixed roasts served with gravy and hot vegetables.
- It overlaps with a traditional spit braai but the menu leans towards a Sunday-roast style meal rather than lamb with salads.
- It is often the better fit for formal dinners, winter functions and guests who prefer plated food.

A spit roast caterer cooks joints on a rotisserie at your venue and serves them carvery style. The difference from a spit braai is mostly in the menu:
| Spit roast | Spit braai | |
|---|---|---|
| Typical meats | Pork, rolled beef, gammon, chicken | Whole lamb first, then others |
| Sides | Roast veg, gravy, Yorkshire pudding, cauliflower bake | Salads, garlic bread, pap |
| Serving style | Carvery or plated | Buffet |
| Season | Year-round, strong in winter | Mostly spring and summer |
Options Available
- Hog roast. Whole pig with crackling and apple sauce. See pork spit braai.
- Rolled pork belly or leg. Easier carving, good for 20 - 60 guests.
- Rolled beef. Topside, rump or sirloin, served with gravy and mustard.
- Gammon on the spit. Glazed, popular at year-end and Christmas functions.
- Rotisserie chicken. Cheapest option and easy for mixed dietary needs.
- Combination carvery. Two or three roasts on one menu.

Spit Roast Catering Questions
What is the difference between a spit roast and a spit braai?
Mostly the menu. A spit braai centres on lamb with salads and bread; a spit roast is carvery style with pork, beef or gammon, hot vegetables and gravy.
How much does spit roast catering cost in Bloemfontein?
Roughly R170 - R350 per person, and more for plated service with waiters.
Can a spit roast be served indoors?
The carving station can be indoors. The spit itself usually needs to be outside or in a well-ventilated area.
Is a hog roast good for a small group?
A whole pig suits 50+ guests. For 20 - 40, a rolled pork belly or leg is more practical.
Can I mix roasts?
Yes. Two-roast carveries are common, for example beef and gammon, or pork and chicken.
