Film set catering in Hunt's Green
How the day works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. In December, daylight in Hunt's Green ends around 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Tell us the base location.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We roast under cover at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We tidy up and go.
How to prepare
- Name a contact for the day
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

How our film set catering works in Hunt's Green
If lunch moves, a cooked roast can be held for a while. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust. Whether it is wrap days and location days, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb for your crew.
For a shoot in a place like Hunt's Green, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. The hog is roasted on site at your shoot, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your crew.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to shop-bought sandwiches, hot food makes a difference on a long day. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
