Book a hog roast in Chadwell Heath

Is a hog roast right for your shoot?

Compared with a barbecue, carving is quicker for big numbers. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Why book with us

  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
  • Carved by our chef in front of your crew
  • We bring everything to cook and serve
  • Timed around your day

About our film set catering in Chadwell Heath

We work with location managers and production offices on access, base layout and timings. Popular choices include hog roast rolls, salads and new potatoes, and we’re regularly asked to cater crew thank-you days and commercials and music videos.

London locations around Chadwell Heath can have tight access, so send us the route and restrictions. The hog is roasted on site at your shoot, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

Prices and what affects them

Each price is built from:

  • The number of people
  • Time on site
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • Crockery choices

When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Details that help

Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:

  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Allergies we should know about
  • The venue or postcode
  • Your menu choices

Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.

Looking after everyone

Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:

  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Share the allergen list with the crew
  • Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
  • Plan separately for halal if needed

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

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

What comes off the roaster

Crackling

Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Roast pork

Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy.
