About our care home hog roast in Beedon
We roast through the morning and serve at the time that suits the home’s routine, whether that’s lunch or an afternoon event. On the menu are new potatoes, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and we are often booked for day centre get-togethers and staff appreciation days.
Rural homes around Beedon may have plenty of outdoor space, perfect for residents to sit out while the hog roasts. The carving happens right in front of your residents, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
