On a long shoot day near Weston Otmoor, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast suits a unit base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. Typical bookings include end-of-shoot wraps and music video days, with new potatoes, spit-roast lamb and rotisserie chicken.

For event organisers in Weston Otmoor
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Halal isn’t offered
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
We arrive early and set up at base, roasting through the morning.
China crockery is available on request.
What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Crockery choices
- Distance from us
- How long the roast and service take
- Menu choices and extras
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

- An estimate of numbers
- Allergies we should know about
Send us the date, the address or OX25 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will confirm availability and send a price. Use our quote form.
