Film set catering in Singleton, carved to order
Crews in Singleton work long days, and lunch needs to be hot and on time. A hog roast works well at base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. Popular choices include new potatoes, hog roast rolls and salads, and typical bookings are for location days and wrap parties.
Near Singleton, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. Timings are planned around your shoot, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.

Questions from Singleton
How far is Singleton from London?
About 50 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Singleton too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
When do you start roasting?
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.
Can you cater our wrap?
We do. Tell us the date and location.
What about crew who don’t eat pork?
Add alternatives to suit your crew.
