Slow-roasted pork in Yarmouth
Film set catering for your shoot in Yarmouth
Crews in Yarmouth work long days, and lunch needs to be hot and on time. A hog roast works well at base: we roast from early and carve on the call. We serve halloumi skewers, a vegan option and rotisserie chicken, and we are frequently booked for milestone days on set and period drama shoots.
Near Yarmouth, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.

Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Yarmouth
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Which station is closest to Yarmouth?
Lymington Pier station, about 3.9 miles north of the centre.
What about crew who don’t eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
What does the production need from you?
Requirements vary by production; share your list and we will respond.
Where do you set up on a shoot?
At base, on level ground. We will agree it with your location manager.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What else we do in Yarmouth
How we price a hog roast for the crew
We work out each quote from:
- Menu choices and extras
- Season and day of the week
- Time on site
- The number of people
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Roughly how many people
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Post allergen details at base
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Stuffing typically contains gluten
Give us one contact in production.
A second meat widens the menu.
What comes off the roaster
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and it suits fussy eaters.
For event organisers in Yarmouth
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
