How the day works

Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your residents will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In late May, sunset in Bexleyheath is about 8:50pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.

  1. You tell us when, how many and where.
  2. We check the grounds and send a price.
  3. We arrive early and start the roast.
  4. We carve and serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
  5. Afterwards we pack up quietly.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before

Care home hog roast for your care home event in Bexleyheath

Serving times fit around the home’s day, lunch or mid-afternoon. Typical bookings include staff thank-you lunches and families’ days, serving new potatoes, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken.

In Bexleyheath, we cook in the home’s garden or car park, as agreed with the manager. 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.

Planning for dietary needs

Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:

  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
  • Halal is not offered
  • Ask us to carve thinly for residents

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

Chicken can be added.

What we serve, dish by dish

Stuffing and apple sauce

Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll, just as they should.

Roast pork

We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist.
