Party hog roast in Limpsfield, slow-roasted on site
After a christening near Limpsfield, a hog roast at home means everyone eats together, and nobody misses the celebration. We’re often asked to cater garden parties and neighbourhood parties, serving apple sauce, coleslaw and a vegan burger or sausage.
A country party near Limpsfield is perfect for a hog roast: roasted all afternoon and carved on the lawn. Plan shelter in case it rains. Timings are planned around your party, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Limpsfield: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Peter?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to Limpsfield?
Oxted station, about 0.6 miles west of the centre.
Can you cater in Limpsfield?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you bring a gazebo?
Not for the cooking, but a gazebo or indoor space for guests is a good backup.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Prices and what affects them
Each price is built from:
- Site access
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Whether you want china
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The venue or postcode

What happens on the day

Sunset in Limpsfield is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:55pm, need lights by the roaster.
