Custom Spit Roast Menu: Build a Feast That Suits Your Crowd


Australians love a good spit roast—but cookie-cutter menus just don’t cut it anymore. In 2025, events are all about personalisation, from playlist to plating. That’s why Caterking’s custom spit roast menu services in Sydney are gaining traction with party hosts who want full flavour and full control.


Whether you're organising a garden wedding, milestone birthday, or corporate retreat, our customisable packages allow you to mix, match, and perfect your spit roast selection to suit the vibe and your guests’ tastes.


Build Your Perfect Feast with a Custom Spit Roast Menu

No two events are the same, and your catering should reflect that. From guest preferences and dietary needs to event style and budget, a truly successful spit roast starts with flexibility. Custom menu planning allows you to shape every detail of the feast, ensuring the food complements the atmosphere and leaves a lasting impression on every guest.


From Traditional to Trendy – Choose the Right Roast for Your Crowd


Classic roast meats are still crowd-pleasers, but there’s more variety than ever:

  • Pork roast with crispy crackling
  • Lamb roast with rosemary and garlic
  • Chicken roast with herb butter and lemon
  • Beef roast served medium-rare with horseradish cream


Plant-based options are also on the rise, including:

  • Smoky jackfruit ‘pulled pork’
  • Stuffed capsicums with grains and herbs
  • Mushroom steaks roasted over open flame

Whether you're catering to traditional eaters or trend-savvy guests, our custom spit roast menu delivers both familiarity and innovation.


Pairing Meats with Sides, Salads, and Sauces


Great roasts deserve great companions:

  • Fresh salads like Greek, garden, or tabouli
  • Roasted vegetables with seasonal herbs
  • Creamy coleslaw, garlic butter corn, or baked potatoes


Then there’s the sauces:

  • House-made apple chutney, mint yoghurt, chimichurri, and spicy aioli to match your menu

Whether you go classic or gourmet, the right combinations enhance the whole dining experience.

Build Your Own Spit Roast Menu with Caterking’s Flexible Packages


Every event has its own rhythm, and a successful catering menu needs the freedom to adapt. Instead of choosing from fixed combinations, a build-your-own approach gives hosts control over flavours, portions, and presentation. With flexible packages, you can design a spit roast menu that fits your guest list, event format, and level of service—without overcomplicating the planning process.


How Our Build-Your-Own System Works


At Caterking, you’re not locked into a fixed menu. Our ‘Build Your Own’ approach includes:

  • Selecting proteins based on guest preferences
  • Choosing side dishes from a curated list
  • Adjusting portion sizes depending on group size and appetite


This approach is ideal for casual BBQs, formal multi-course events, or relaxed buffet-style setups—making it a popular choice for modern spit roast catering sydney bookings.


Customisation for Dietary Needs and Guest Preferences


We cater to real people—so your menu should too. Options include:

  • Gluten-free roast sauces and sides
  • Vegetarian-friendly mains and salads
  • Halal meats on request

Our team also provides recommendations for mixed-crowd menus that satisfy every guest, from meat-lovers to plant-based diners.


Personalised Spit Roast Packages for Every Type of Event



No two events are ever the same, and catering should reflect that. The style of celebration, number of guests, venue layout, and service expectations all influence how a spit roast menu should be delivered. Personalised packages allow the catering to adapt seamlessly—ensuring the food, service flow, and presentation feel perfectly aligned with the occasion rather than forced into a one-size-fits-all format.


Tailored Menus for Weddings, Birthdays, and Corporate Functions


One-size-fits-all rarely works. That’s why we customise based on event type:

  • Weddings: full-service, plated or buffet setups
  • Birthdays: backyard roasts with relaxed side stations
  • Corporate functions: grazing stations, drop-off spit roast options


We also work with your theme—rustic, elegant, tropical, or minimalist—to match the vibe.


Add-Ons That Enhance the Experience


Caterking makes it easy to go beyond the basics:

  • Live carving stations for a show-stopping centrepiece
  • Mobile bars and signature cocktails
  • Dessert stations with sticky date pudding, fruit platters, or gelato
  • Event hire services: tables, chairs, chafing dishes, staff

Spit Roast Catering in Sydney: Why Locals Choose Caterking


When hosting an event, choosing a local catering provider makes a real difference. From ingredient sourcing and timing to on-the-ground coordination, experience in the local market ensures smoother execution and better results. In a city with diverse venues and event styles, a trusted Sydney-based spit roast caterer offers the reliability, flexibility, and local knowledge needed to deliver consistently high-quality experiences.


Local Sourcing and Flavour You Can Taste


We believe in local:

  • Locally-sourced meats for freshness and quality
  • Seasonal produce from Sydney’s best suppliers
  • Unique signature marinades slow-roasted for flavour

Each dish is made with care and attention—because your event deserves more than mass-produced catering.
