Film set catering in Broxhill, carved to order
Rural and period locations near Broxhill can be miles from anywhere to eat, so hot food at base matters. We are often asked to cater long days on set and milestone days on set, serving a vegan option, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers.
Near Broxhill, check tracks and ground with locations before the day. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. At midsummer, daylight in Broxhill lasts until about 9:25pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- We check access to base and quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Before we arrive

For event organisers in Broxhill
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
- Tell us who doesn’t eat pork
- Label the alternatives clearly
If lunch moves, we hold the roast a little; just let us know.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What affects the price in Broxhill
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Access to the cooking area
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Crockery choices
- Time on site
For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The date and time of the event
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

Common questions in Broxhill
Is Broxhill too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What about a wrap party?
We do. Send us the details.
What about locations off the beaten track?
Share the route to base and we will plan the journey.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Away from vehicles and equipment
- Shelter for crew
- The location manager’s agreement
