How our care home hog roast works in Beauworth
Every hog roast day is planned with your care and kitchen teams: the cooking spot, numbers and serving arrangements. For day centre get-togethers and staff appreciation days, we can cook roast potatoes, thinly carved roast pork and apple sauce.
At a rural home near Beauworth, access matters so we can plan our route. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

FAQs for Beauworth
Is Beauworth close to London?
About 57 miles from central London.
Is Beauworth too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
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.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
A hog roast can be part of a wider event, such as a singer or a garden fête. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why Beauworth hosts choose us
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- No surprises: everything in writing

For event organisers in Beauworth
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your residents will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Winter afternoons in Beauworth are short, with sunset at about 4:00pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- We start with the date and numbers.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We serve inside or out.
- We pack up calmly.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
