Slow-roasted pork in Frimley Green
How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your crew will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In December, daylight in Frimley Green ends around 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Tell us the base location.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We roast under cover at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We leave base tidy.
How to prepare
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

What a hog roast costs
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:

- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

What we serve, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some crew won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Halal is not offered
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
Give us one contact in production, normally locations or the production office.
Ask about china.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
