Film set catering for your shoot in Buscot
On a long shoot day near Buscot, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast works well at base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. On the menu are a vegan option, salads and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater period locations and base catering.
Rural locations near Buscot can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

What a hog roast costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Whether you want china
- The serving time and how long we are on site
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Buscot
Is Buscot close to London?
About 69 miles from central London.
Is Buscot too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What about a wrap party?
We do.
Who serves?
You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Do you have documents for locations?
Send us your requirements, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Tell us who doesn’t eat pork
- Post allergen details at base
- Plan separately for halal if needed
A cooked roast can wait.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
How it works
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can get on with your shoot. In December, daylight in Buscot ends around 4:00pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:30pm.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
How to prepare
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
