Slow-roasted pork in Redhill
How our film set catering works in Redhill
Chicken, lamb, halloumi skewers and a vegan option cover most crews, and we provide allergen information for every dish. For countryside locations and historic house shoots, we can cook a vegan option, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken.
For a shoot in Redhill, tell us where base is and how to reach it. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which suits bigger events.
Prices and what affects them
We work out each quote from:
- The number of people
- Season and day of the week
- Access to the cooking area
- Whether you want china
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What we need to know
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- The date and time of the event
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Your menu choices
Every shoot is quoted on its own, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your shoot: send us your details through our quote form.

Questions from Redhill
Is Redhill close to London?
About 18 miles from central London.
What’s the nearest station to Redhill?
Redhill has its own station: Redhill station.
Can you get to rural locations?
Send the location and access notes and we will plan the journey.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your shoot for a quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do you need much space at base?
Not much: a level area at base, agreed with locations.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
The process
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. Late-September shoots near Redhill lose the light at about 7:05pm, 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.
Preparing for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
How to get a price
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the shoot is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.
