About our wedding hog roast in Limpsfield
A hog roast suits relaxed weddings in Limpsfield: proper food, carved fresh, with plenty for everyone. Our staff serve and clear, so the day runs smoothly. Popular choices include rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb, and we’re frequently booked for evening receptions and blessings and renewals.
Rural weddings around Limpsfield have a magic of their own, and a whole hog roasting through the afternoon adds to it. Plan a firm route in, especially if it rains. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with pizza or other evening vans, carving serves plenty of people fast. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Why us?
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to

Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Give final numbers in good time
- Collect dietary needs with RSVPs
- Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
- Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
Running late? A slow roast can wait a little. Your coordinator can keep us posted.
Add spit-roast lamb for a second roast.

Common questions in Limpsfield
How far is Limpsfield from London?
Roughly 17 miles from the centre of London.
Which station is closest to Limpsfield?
Oxted station, about 0.6 miles west of the centre.
What comes with the hog roast?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Will guests be full?
We’ll plan quantities from your numbers, and we’ll confirm it in writing.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
For event organisers in Limpsfield
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
