Slow-roasted pork in Knotty Green
About our film set catering in Knotty Green
On a long shoot day near Knotty Green, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast works well at base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. Typical bookings include unit base lunches and commercials and music videos, serving a vegan option, hog roast rolls and new potatoes.
Rural locations near Knotty Green can be a long way from food, so hot food at base is a big help. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Halal isn’t offered
- Tell us who does not eat pork
We serve quickly on the call.
Sides make a proper lunch.
