Common questions in Norwood Hill
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is Norwood Hill too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: use our quote form.
Where do you set up on a shoot?
A level outdoor spot clear of trucks and kit, agreed with locations.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
Film set catering in Norwood Hill, slow-roasted on site
We work with location managers and production offices on access, base layout and timings. Whether it is unit base lunches and crew thank-you days, we will put together a menu of hog roast rolls, a vegan option and new potatoes for your crew.
Rural locations near Norwood Hill can be a long way from food, so hot food at base is a big help. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
A cooked roast can wait; just let us know.

How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. By late September, sunset near Norwood Hill is about 7:05pm, so plan lights for evening service.
- Share the location details.
- We agree our position with locations.
- We cook at base.
- Service is quick.
- We tidy up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early

What affects the price in Norwood Hill
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Time on site
- Crockery choices
- Season and day of the week
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.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Dietary requirements
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Rough numbers
It’s easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.
Is a hog roast right for your shoot?
Next to grilling to order, one roast serves everyone together. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
Why us?

- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
