Slow-roasted pork in Seale
How our film set catering works in Seale
The roaster cooks outdoors under cover, away from equipment and trucks, in a position locations are happy with. Popular choices include halloumi skewers, a vegan option and spit-roast lamb, and we are frequently booked for wrap parties and shoots on location.
Rural locations near Seale can be a long way from food, so hot food at base is a big help. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before you book.
Common questions in Seale

No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
What paperwork do you provide?

Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

Can you cater for vegans on set?
Chicken, lamb, halloumi skewers and a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.

The menu, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
How it works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. At midsummer, daylight in Seale lasts until about 9:20pm, which suits an evening wrap at base.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- We check the route and send a price.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Before we arrive
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Name a contact for the day
