How it works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. Because the roast starts early, and winter daylight in Spanish Green ends around 4:00pm, so we may set up under lights.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Film set catering for your shoot in Spanish Green
The roaster cooks outdoors under cover, away from equipment and trucks, agreed with the location manager. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and hog roast rolls, and we’re often booked for location shoots and crew appreciation lunches.
Rural locations near Spanish Green can be a long way from food, so lunch at base matters. Timings are planned around your shoot, working back from when you want to eat.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
A hog roast can be a special day alongside regular catering. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why us?
- Crackling for everyone who wants it

Prices and what affects them
Things that change the price:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Plates or china
- Time on site
- Distance from us
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- What the outdoor space is like
- Roughly how many people
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the shoot is and roughly how many. A picture of the cooking area helps. Use our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
