About our film set catering in Burford
For a wrap party, a hog roast is relaxed and generous, with crew eating together at the end of the shoot. Popular choices include rotisserie chicken, salads and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for period locations and long days on set.
Shoots around Burford often use houses, farms and lanes. Let us know about access. 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.

Your quote depends on:
- How long the roast and service take

- How many people are eating
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote

For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
About the food
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we’ll bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
