What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Why choose a hog roast in Rowley Green?
Compared with a full location caterer, a hog roast is simpler and suits smaller shoots and one-off days. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What you get with us
- Planned to your running order
- Sides to make it a full meal
- All the equipment comes with us
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too

How the day works
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. By late September, sunset near Rowley Green is about 7:05pm, so plan lights for evening service.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We pack away straight after.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
