For a shoot in a place like Mimbridge, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. You will know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.

Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Planning for dietary needs
Some crew will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Halal isn’t offered
- Stuffing typically contains gluten
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
We arrive early and set up at base, so the roast is ready by lunch.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and in December Mimbridge is dark by about 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.
- Share the location details.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We roast under cover at base.
- Service is quick.
- We tidy up and go.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
