How our film set catering works in Stubbings
Crews in Stubbings work long days, and lunch needs to be hot and on time. A hog roast works well at base: we roast from early and carve on the call. We are frequently asked to cater unit base lunches and crew appreciation lunches, with hog roast rolls, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb.
Near Stubbings, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so hot food at base is a big help. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. Because the roast starts early, and winter daylight in Stubbings ends around 3:55pm.
- Share the location details.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We roast under cover at base.
- Service is quick.
- We tidy up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
