A hog roast near Peters Village
Film set catering in Peters Village, carved to order
Some locations near Peters Village are a long way from food, so hot food at base matters. Popular choices include new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls, and we’re regularly asked to cater wrap parties and commercials and music videos.
For a location shoot near Peters Village, base might be in a field or farmyard, so ground conditions matter. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
What the cooking area needs
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- Sign-off from the location
- Shelter for crew
- Clearance from trucks, kit and trees
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Peters Village
What’s the nearest station to Peters Village?
The closest is Snodland station, roughly 1 mile away.
Is Peters Village close to London?
Roughly 26 miles from the centre of London.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
What about locations off the beaten track?
We can, given access details. Let us know about the route.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
A hog roast compared with other options
Some productions combine a hog roast with their usual caterer, for a wrap or a milestone. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Why book with us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
Read our prices page or what a hog roast costs.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Count crew needing an alternative
When lunch is called, we carve fast.
Ask about china.
The process
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. By late September, sunset near Peters Village is about 7:00pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
- Tell us the base location.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We roast under cover at base.
- Service is quick.
- We tidy up and go.
Before we arrive
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
