Care home hog roast for your care home event in Bishopstone

We roast outdoors under cover in the garden or car park, on a spot that keeps emergency access clear and away from opening windows. For sheltered housing gatherings and residents’ themed days, we can cook apple sauce, new potatoes and thinly carved roast pork for your residents.

Country homes near Bishopstone often have big gardens with views, perfect for residents to sit out while the hog roasts. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.

Will there be enough to go round?

We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.

What if things run late?

We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.

Can you carve thinly?

What happens on the day

The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In summer, Bishopstone has daylight until about 9:25pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
