Film set catering in Sibford Ferris, slow-roasted on site
Some locations near Sibford Ferris are a long way from food, so a hog roast at base keeps the crew fed. Whether it is long days on set and milestone days on set, we will put together a menu of salads, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken for your crew.
For a shoot in a place like Sibford Ferris, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your crew.

The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Working with your venue
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Planning the cooking spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:

What else we do in Sibford Ferris
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a full location catering unit, a hog roast suits single days and smaller crews. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why book with us
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- An itemised quote
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Carved to order by a chef
See our prices page or the cost guide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
Give us one contact in production, typically locations or the production office.
Ask about china.
