Slow-roasted pork in Bledington
Film set catering in Bledington, slow-roasted on site
Rural and period locations near Bledington can be miles from anywhere to eat, so a hog roast at base keeps the crew fed. Popular choices include rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and halloumi skewers, and we are regularly asked to cater location days and long shoot days.
For a shoot in a place like Bledington, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. The carving happens right in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
