Slow-roasted pork in Wormley
How our film set catering works in Wormley
On a long shoot day near Wormley, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast works well at base: we roast from early and carve on the call. Whether it’s rural locations and commercials and music videos, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, halloumi skewers and salads.
Near Wormley, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so hot food at base is a big help. Timings are planned around your shoot, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Common questions in Wormley
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is Wormley too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Do you do wrap parties?
Of course. Send us the details.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
