Wedding hog roast near North Heath
Not every guest eats pork, so we plan for that: lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not available. On the menu are new potatoes, crackling and spit-roast lamb, and we are regularly asked to cater relaxed, low-key weddings and evening food after the first dance.
There’s something special about a country wedding near North Heath, and slow-roasted pork carved for guests 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.

North Heath questions
What’s the nearest station to North Heath?
Pulborough station, about 2.4 miles south-west of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like North Heath?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Where will the roaster go at our wedding?
Always outside, away from the marquee walls. We can serve inside the marquee if the supplier agrees.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Is a hog roast OK for a sit-down meal?
Of course: carved pork on plates with sides, with our staff serving.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Do you come to North Heath?
Yes, North Heath is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
What if our venue has its own caterer?
It depends on the venue. Check with them first, and we will liaise with them.
The menu, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, and it’s carved the same way, often with mint sauce.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
What the cooking area needs
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A serving area close to where guests eat
- A way in for the roaster
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

How the day works

At midsummer, sunset in North Heath is about 9:20pm, so we can time the carving before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
