Slow-roasted pork in Tadworth
Film set catering in Tadworth, carved to order
There are options for crew who don’t eat pork, with allergen details for everything. We are often asked to cater extended shoot days and unit base lunches, with rotisserie chicken, spit-roast lamb and hog roast rolls.
Shoots around Tadworth often use houses, farms and lanes. Let us know about access. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a full location caterer, a hog roast is simpler and suits smaller shoots and one-off days. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why us?
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- All the equipment comes with us
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Crackling for everyone who wants it

Working with your venue
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. By late September, sunset near Tadworth is about 7:05pm, so plan lights for evening service.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after.
Preparing for the day
- Send final numbers in good time
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
