The Spiedo Experience
Traditional Italian feast cooking, brought to your event.
What Is Spiedo?
A selection of meats threaded onto long skewers with fresh sage and potatoes, then slow-roasted for up to six hours over coals and regularly basted with butter. The result is a crispy, caramelized exterior with tender meat inside. The flavor is rich and savory with herbal notes from the sage, deepened by hours of slow cooking. It's a traditional dish from Northern Italy, served at town festivals and made for feeding crowds.
The Untino
As the meat roasts, butter collects below and mixes with the drippings and sage, creating untino—a golden sauce that captures all the flavor from the cook. This is what makes spiedo distinctive.
Served With Polenta
We serve spiedo with creamy polenta the traditional way. The untino gets spooned into a well in the center, where the polenta soaks it up. Rich meat, buttery sauce, and comforting polenta—balanced and complete.
Built For Gatherings
Multiple meats mean there's something for everyone, served either family-style on big platters or plated individually. It works for special occasions without being fussy. The kind of meal where people connect over the table and remember it.
