What comes off the roaster
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, carved to order at the serving station, often with mint sauce.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.
About our film set catering in Wigginton
The roaster cooks outdoors under cover, away from equipment and trucks, in a position locations are happy with. On the menu are a vegan option, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes, and typical bookings are for extended shoot days and period drama shoots.
For a shoot in a place like Wigginton, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. Our chef carves in front of your crew, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Is a hog roast right for your shoot?
Compared with a full location caterer, a hog roast is simpler and suits smaller shoots and one-off days. 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.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

- Tell us who doesn’t eat pork

Lamb or chicken gives the crew a choice.
The process
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, 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 Wigginton ends around 3:55pm.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day

Roughly 67 miles from the centre of London.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will fit around changes.

Organising for someone else?
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
