Care home hog roast for Almodington
How our care home hog roast works in Almodington
Pork can be carved thinly and served on plates with potatoes and apple sauce, rather than in rolls if that’s easier. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. Popular choices include new potatoes, halloumi skewers and roast potatoes, and we’re frequently booked for day centre events and garden fêtes.
Country homes near Almodington frequently have big gardens with views, perfect for residents to sit out while the hog roasts. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Almodington: your questions answered
How far is Almodington from London?
About 59 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Which station is closest to Almodington?
Chichester station, about 4.2 miles north-east of the centre.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.
Do you provide allergen information?
We provide full allergen information for every dish. Gluten-free rolls can be provided.
Where do you cook at a care home?
In the grounds, never in the kitchen and away from opening windows.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Stuffing usually contains gluten
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
We clear away quietly.
Ask about china.

A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.

Planners, venues and businesses

What a hog roast costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Numbers
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Distance from us
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What we need to know
These are the details we need:
- The venue or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Rough numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat

- We confirm the spot with your manager and quote.
- We arrive early and start the roast.
- The chef carves and our staff serve residents.
