A pig roast or hog roast is an event or gathering which involves the barbecuing of a whole pig.

Pig roasts, under a variety of names, are a common traditional celebration event in many places including the Philippines, Puerto Rico and Cuba.[1][2] It is also popular in the United States, especially in the state of Hawaii (a luau)[3] and in the Southern United States (pig pickin'). In Southeast Asia, a pig roast is a staple among the Buddhist, and Christian communities, notably among Catholic Filipinos and Hindu Balinese people, or Buddhist Chinese people.
