How the day works
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Late-September shoots near College Town lose the light at about 7:05pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
How to get a price

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Some productions combine a hog roast with their usual caterer, for a wrap or a milestone. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
