Care home hog roast in Barwell

Care home hog roast for your care home event in Barwell

You know your residents best, so we follow your guidance and give you full allergen details. Whether it’s milestone days for the home and retirement housing events, we can cook halloumi skewers, thinly carved roast pork and apple sauce for your residents.

In Barwell, we cook in the home’s garden or car park. The carving happens right in front of your residents, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Is a hog roast right for your care home event?

Next to staff cooking, your staff can focus on residents. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

Why book with us

  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Our staff serve and clear
  • Planned to your running order
  • Choices for people who do not eat pork

See how we price or what a hog roast costs.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Some residents will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Count residents who need an alternative
  • Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
  • Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time

We set up under cover in the grounds, following the home’s procedures.

Serving on plates is frequently easier.

Planners, venues and businesses

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Space, access and the venue

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:

  • Sign-off from management
  • A dining room, lounge or shaded garden
  • Flat ground in the grounds

As a London location, Barwell is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

What a hog roast costs

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Crockery choices
  • How many people are eating
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

What to tell us

To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:

  • An estimate of numbers
  • What the outdoor space is like
  • Dietary requirements
  • The address or postcode

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. Fill in our quote form.

A closer look at the menu

Roast pork

The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.

Stuffing and apple sauce

Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing generally contains gluten.

Your questions about a hog roast day in Barwell

Could you cook in Claygate Common?

How much does a hog roast cost?

Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.

Can you cater in Barwell?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Barwell and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.

Can relatives eat with residents?

Many homes make it a family day; just tell us total numbers.

Do residents have to eat rolls?

We will serve however suits your residents.

Can you roast in the rain?

The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your residents will want somewhere dry to eat.

What if things run late?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

The process

A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. In summer, Barwell has daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden events easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.

  1. We plan with your manager and kitchen.
  2. You get a clear price.
  3. We cook in the grounds.
  4. We carve thinly and serve on plates.
  5. We tidy up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage
  • Name a contact for the day
