A hog roast or other catering?
At the end of a shoot, it’s a relaxed way to finish. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Tell us who doesn’t eat pork
When lunch is called, we carve fast.
A second meat widens the menu.

Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

How the day works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. At midsummer, daylight in Landport lasts until about 9:20pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after service.
Preparing for the day
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
