Rural and period locations near Bramshott can be miles from anywhere to eat, so a hog roast at base keeps the crew fed. Popular choices include new potatoes, salads and halloumi skewers, and we’re frequently booked for ad shoots and end-of-shoot wraps.
Near Bramshott, check tracks and ground with locations before the day. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

- Which meats and sides you choose
- The date and time of year
Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote. Tell us the exact address for an accurate figure.

For planners, venues and organisers

Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:

- Ask the production office for dietary needs
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans

We follow location rules on vehicles and timings.
Lamb or chicken gives the crew a choice.
Step by step
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your crew will smell it long before they see it. In December, daylight in Bramshott ends around 4:00pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us the base location.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We cook at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We leave base tidy.
Before we arrive
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

A hog roast or other catering?
Some productions combine a hog roast with their usual caterer, for a wrap or a milestone. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What you get with us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- All the equipment comes with us
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Serving and clearing done for you

The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, carved to order at the serving station, often with mint sauce.
