How our film set catering works in Saunderton Lee
Some locations near Saunderton Lee are a long way from food, so a hog roast at base keeps the crew fed. For rural locations and period drama shoots, we can cook new potatoes, halloumi skewers and a vegan option.
Near Saunderton Lee, check tracks and ground with locations. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue, carving is quicker for big numbers. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Why us?
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Carved to order by a chef
- Sides to make it a full meal

The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Working with your venue
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.

When you contact us, it helps to include:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The address or postcode

- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after.
Before we arrive
