Film set catering in Earnley, carved to order

We need an outdoor spot at base, clear of vehicles and kit, agreed with the location manager. Popular choices include salads, a vegan option and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for unit base lunches and location shoots.

Rural locations near Earnley can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. The carving happens right in front of your crew, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Earnley

Is Earnley too small for a hog roast?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

What about windy coastal sites?

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

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.

Can you work to the call sheet?

We work to your schedule, holding the roast if lunch moves.

What do you need from us on the day?

The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.

What do people get?

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

What about crew who don’t eat pork?

We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?

Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.

What happens on the day

We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can get on with your shoot. On a winter shoot near Earnley, the light goes by about 4:00pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
  2. We confirm access and send a price.
  3. We set up at base and roast through the morning.
  4. We carve fast on the lunch call.
  5. We clear our spot.

Preparing for the day

  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Confirm numbers ahead of the day
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Looking after everyone

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:

  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
  • Share the allergen list with the crew
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten

We pack away straight after service.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

How we price a hog roast for the crew

We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

  • Site access
  • The date and time of year
  • The journey to the venue
  • 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, so we quote each one individually.

What we need to know

These are the details we need:

  • Your menu choices
  • Where the event is
  • An estimate of numbers
  • Any venue rules

We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or PO20 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Send us your details through our quote form.
