Film set catering for your shoot in Wingham Well
Wrap parties suit a hog roast too. Typical bookings include rural locations and end-of-shoot wraps, serving spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers.
For a shoot in a place like Wingham Well, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.
What happens on the day
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In December, daylight in Wingham Well ends around 3:50pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:15pm.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We check access to base and quote.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
How to prepare
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
