Film set catering in Sarisbury, carved to order
On a long shoot day near Sarisbury, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast works well at base: we roast from early and carve on the call. We serve new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and salads, and we are often booked for wrap parties and shoots on location.
Around Sarisbury, locations can be rural. Tell us about the route to base. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a full location caterer, a hog roast suits single days and smaller crews. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
What you get with us
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Crackling for everyone who wants it

Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Share the allergen list with the crew
We clear our spot after lunch.
Wrap parties can run into the evening, tell us about lighting at base.

Common questions in Sarisbury
How far is Sarisbury from London?
Roughly 67 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you roast near the sea around Sarisbury?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do you work to set times?
We work to your schedule, holding the roast if lunch moves.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you come to Sarisbury?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
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.
For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every shoot is different. The main factors are:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of people
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- The journey to the venue
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What we need to know
To check the date and the space, we will need:
- The date and time of the event
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Every shoot is quoted on its own, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Tell us about your shoot for a quote: use our quote form.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
