Schedules move, and a slow roast copes. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust. Popular choices include new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for ad shoots and long days on set.

Rural locations near Burdrop can be a long way from food, so hot food at base is a big help. Timings are planned around your shoot, working back from when you want to eat.

Allergies and dietary needs

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Stuffing typically contains gluten
  • Ask the production office for dietary needs
  • Share the allergen list with the crew
  • Plan separately for halal if needed

If lunch moves, we hold the roast a little; just let us know.

Wrap parties can run into the evening, tell us about lighting at base.

Step by step

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. Late-September shoots near Burdrop lose the light at about 7:10pm, so plan lights for evening service.

  1. We start with the location, call times and numbers.
  2. You get a check on access and a quote.
  3. We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
  4. When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
  5. Afterwards we clear our spot at base.

Preparing for the day

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Send final numbers in good time
  • Give us a contact number for the day

How to get a price

Send us the date, the address or OX15 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.

How big a hog will we need?

The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.

Do we need to provide electricity?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
