Film set catering for your shoot in Barnsole

What affects the price in Barnsole
We do not use a fixed price list, because every shoot is different. The main factors are:
- Time on site
- Season and day of the week
- Whether you want china
- Access to the cooking area
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
The process
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. In December, daylight in Barnsole ends around 3:50pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:15pm.
- Share the location details.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We roast under cover at base.
- Service is quick.
- We tidy up and go.
How to prepare

What comes off the roaster
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
