About our film set catering in Gillette Corner
Crew numbers can be large, and carving feeds plenty of people quickly. Add sides for a full meal. We serve spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls, and we’re regularly asked to cater wrap parties and music video days.
In Gillette Corner, unit bases are often in car parks or yards. The location manager will agree where we set up, often with council permission. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Planning for dietary needs
Some crew won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Share the allergen list with the crew
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Tell us who doesn’t eat pork
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
A cooked roast can wait.
A second meat widens the menu.
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
What we serve, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we’ll plan the vegan burgers or sausages.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, especially for crew who don’t eat pork.
Questions from Gillette Corner
Could you cook in Boston Manor Park?

Can you roast in the rain?

How we price a hog roast for the crew
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Numbers
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How long the roast and service take
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
Here’s what we will ask:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the event is
- Rough numbers
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: send us your details through our quote form.

Step by step
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. On a winter shoot near Gillette Corner, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
