Care home hog roast in Belmont, carved to order

We roast outdoors under cover in the garden or car park, on a spot that keeps emergency access clear and away from opening windows. We serve new potatoes, halloumi skewers and roast potatoes, and typical bookings are for milestone days for the home and retirement housing events.

In Belmont, care homes, a hog roast day brings a sense of occasion. 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.

Step by step

Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. By late September, the light in Belmont goes at about 7:00pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.

  1. We start with the date, numbers of residents, staff and visitors, and the time.
  2. We agree the cooking spot, clear of emergency access, and quote.
  3. We arrive early and start the roast.
  4. We serve in the dining room or garden, as you prefer.
  5. Afterwards we pack up quietly.

Preparing for the day

  • Think about shelter for your residents
  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Common questions in Belmont

Is Belmont close to London?

Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Can you roast near the sea around Belmont?

Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.

Do you need power or water?

The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Do residents have to eat rolls?

We can carve thinly and serve on plates with potatoes and apple sauce.

Can you roast in the rain?

Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

What about residents who don’t eat pork?

The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.

What’s included?

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will fit around changes.

  • Request gluten-free rolls

We arrive early and set up outdoors, following your sign-in and safety rules.

Chicken can be added.

  • Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
