The process
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your shoot. Late-September shoots near Pusey lose the light at about 7:10pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
How to prepare
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

Film set catering in Pusey, slow-roasted on site
The roaster cooks outdoors under cover, away from equipment and trucks, agreed with the location manager. Popular choices include new potatoes, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken, and we’re regularly asked to cater long days on set and period drama shoots.
For a shoot in a place like Pusey, tracks and soft ground need checking. The carving happens right in front of your crew, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

About the food
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so nobody misses out.
Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Share the allergen list with the crew
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
If lunch moves, we hold the roast a little; just let us know.
Ask for gluten-free rolls.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwiches from a shop, hot food makes a difference on a long day. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Why book with us
- Carved to order by a chef

If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
