From commercials to long-form drama, we fit around the call sheet. Whether it’s period locations and farm and estate locations, we can cook spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and a vegan option and more.

Near Camber, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so hot food at base is a big help. Timings are planned around your shoot, working back from when you want to eat.

FAQs for Camber

Which station is closest to Camber?

The closest is Rye station, roughly 2.9 miles away.

Can you roast near the sea around Camber?

Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.

Can you set up at the unit base?

Typically, if there’s a level, open spot for the roaster under cover. Locations will confirm the spot.

Do you cover Camber?

Yes, Camber is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.

Will there be enough to go round?

We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.

What if things run late?

We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

Do you serve the food?

You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.

How we price a hog roast for the crew

Things that change the price:

  • Site access
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Travel to Camber
  • How long the roast and service take

What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

What we need to know

The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:

  • Roughly how many people
  • Dietary requirements
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • A photo of the cooking area

Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish

Roast pork

Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.

Spit-roast lamb

Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, especially for crew who do not eat pork.

Looking after everyone

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
  • Plan separately for halal if needed
  • Keep vegetarian food labelled
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten

We work to the location’s rules.

Ask for gluten-free rolls.

Working with your venue

If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.

Planning the cooking spot

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • Vehicle access to base
  • The location manager’s agreement
  • A contact in production

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

From the roaster

  • New potatoes
  • Hog roast rolls
  • Vegan option (Ve)
  • Spit-roast lamb
  • Stuffing and apple sauce
  • Salads
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • Rotisserie chicken

How the day works

The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. At midsummer, daylight in Camber lasts until about 9:15pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.

  1. You send the location, date and lunch call.
  2. You get a check on access and a quote.
  3. Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
  4. We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
  5. We pack up and leave the base tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Planning a shoot in Camber

Camber is about 11 miles north-east of Hastings, in East Sussex. Our roaster is a regular sight at shoots around Camber. Camber is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we cater. Our bookings stretch from Camber to Canterbury (about 27 miles away).

Within reach of Camber are historic houses such as Lamb House (2.8 miles west). Historic houses are popular locations, and most keep cooking well away from the house, so plan the unit base with locations. Crew coming by rail can use the station: the closest railway station is Rye station, roughly 2.9 miles north-west of the centre. With the sea within about 3 miles, coastal shoots need a sheltered base, so plan where crew will eat.
