Film set catering in Palestine, slow-roasted on site
Crews in Palestine work long days, and lunch needs to be hot and on time. A hog roast suits a unit base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. Typical bookings include shoots on location and wrap days, with halloumi skewers, salads and rotisserie chicken.
For a shoot in a place like Palestine, tracks and soft ground need checking. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Grateley station, in Palestine itself.
How much does a hog roast cost?

About the food
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, carved to order at the serving station, frequently with mint sauce.
How it works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. At midsummer, daylight in Palestine lasts until about 9:25pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- 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.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
Before we arrive
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
Getting a price
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.

Palestine for film and TV crews
Palestine is in Hampshire. We take a hog roast for the crew to homes, halls, workplaces and venues in Palestine and the surrounding area. We bring hog roasts to all 683 towns and villages across Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from Palestine to Southampton (20 miles away).
Within reach of Palestine are historic houses such as Idmiston Manor (4.7 miles south-west). Historic houses are popular locations, and most keep cooking well away from the house, so plan the unit base with locations. For crew arriving by train, Grateley station serves Palestine directly.
This part of Hampshire takes in SP11, so your shoot can be anywhere in it. We can cater a shoot on streets such as Station Road, Streetway Road and Campbell Close, wherever there’s an outdoor spot for the roaster. Neighbouring places where we cater shoots include Grateley (1 mile north-east), Quarley (2 miles north), Over Wallop (2 miles south-east), Fox (2 miles north-east) and Kentsboro (3 miles east). Larger places within reach include Winchester (15 miles south-east), Andover (7 miles north-east), Romsey (14 miles south-east), Hyde (15 miles south-east), Tidworth (5 miles north) and Weeke (14 miles south-east).
