Film set catering in Kirtlington, slow-roasted on site

For a wrap party, a hog roast is relaxed and generous, with crew eating together at the end of the shoot. Typical bookings include commercials and music videos and crew appreciation lunches, with new potatoes, halloumi skewers and a vegan option.

Near Kirtlington, check tracks and ground with locations. Timings are planned around your shoot, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:

  • Stuffing generally contains gluten
  • Ask the production office for dietary needs
  • Keep vegetarian food labelled
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed

We get to base first thing, so the roast is ready by lunch.

Ask for gluten-free rolls.

Kirtlington: your questions answered

Is Kirtlington close to London?

About 57 miles from central London.

Which station is closest to Kirtlington?

Tackley station, about 1.1 miles north-west of the centre.

What about a wrap party?

Yes, a hog roast suits a relaxed wrap party, with lamb or chicken if you like.

What do you need from us on the day?

Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

Will there be enough to go round?

We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.

Do you have documents for locations?

Send us your requirements, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

How much room do you need?

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.

Do we need to provide electricity?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Prices and what affects them

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:

  • The date and time of year
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • How many people are eating
  • Crockery choices

For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What we need to know

For a quick, accurate price, send us:

  • The address or postcode
  • Your date and serving time
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Rules from the venue or landowner

The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.

What comes off the roaster

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.

Roast pork

We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist.

What happens on the day

Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your crew, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Because the roast starts early, and in December Kirtlington is dark by about 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.

  1. Tell us the base location.
  2. We confirm where we set up.
  3. We roast under cover at base.
  4. We serve rolls or plates quickly.
  5. We leave base tidy.

How to prepare

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

How to get a price

Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.

  • 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
  • Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
