Film set catering in Temple, slow-roasted on site

Crews in Temple 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. Typical bookings include extended shoot days and farm and estate locations, with spit-roast lamb, new potatoes and halloumi skewers.

Near Temple, check tracks and ground with locations. The hog is roasted on site at your shoot, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

What a hog roast costs

There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • How many people are eating
  • Distance from us

Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote. Give us the address for an accurate figure.

What we need to know

To get the best quote, tell us:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
  • The venue or postcode
  • Allergies we should know about

We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your shoot for a quote: use our quote form.

The process

We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can enjoy your shoot. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and winter daylight in Temple ends around 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.

  1. The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
  2. You get a check on access and a quote.
  3. We agree our position at base with the location manager.
  4. We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
  5. We pack up and leave the base tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival

About the food

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.

Spit-roast lamb

Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
