Our care home hog roast in Hampshire

Some homes book a hog roast to thank their staff. Typical bookings include day centre events and milestone days for the home, serving halloumi skewers, roast potatoes and new potatoes.

On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat.

We start with the date, numbers of residents, staff and visitors, and the time.
We agree the cooking spot, clear of emergency access, and quote.
On the day we set up outdoors and roast through the morning.
The chef carves and our staff serve residents.
We clear away quietly and leave the grounds tidy.

Care homes across Hampshire

In Hampshire, hog roast days suit homes, sheltered housing and day centres alike. Parts of Hampshire are within a few miles of the New Forest National Park, the South Downs National Park and the Surrey Hills National Landscape, so check venue rules on outside caterers for countryside events. Around 143 places in Hampshire are close to the coast, where we always think about wind when choosing a cooking spot.

Basingstoke: With the A30 and A33 nearby, the home is easy for us to reach. Residents who remember days out at Daneshill Park Woods may enjoy talking about them over lunch. Late May in Basingstoke has light until about 8:55pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

Count families and staff too
Ask us to carve thinly for residents
Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
Halal is not offered

Carers can help residents choose and carry plates.

Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.

For event organisers in Hampshire

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.

What comes off the roaster

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Vegan residents can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.

Roast pork

We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.

Questions from Hampshire

What happens in bad weather?

We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your residents will want somewhere dry to eat.

What time do you serve?

Tell us the time that suits residents, and we will plan the roast around it.

When should we book?

The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.

Do you bring plates?

Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

Do you need power or water?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

How long does a hog roast take to cook?

It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.

Will there be enough to go round?

We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
