How our care home hog roast works in Bramshaw
Pork can be carved thinly and served on plates with potatoes and apple sauce, rather than in rolls if that is easier. Texture-modified meals should come from the home’s own kitchen. Typical bookings include milestone days for the home and family days with visitors, with apple sauce, thinly carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken.
For a care home near Bramshaw, tell us about lanes and the drive so we can plan our route. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
How we price a hog roast day
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every care home event is different. What matters most:
- Time on site
- Travel to Bramshaw
- Crockery choices
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Dietary requirements
- Any venue rules
- An estimate of numbers
- The venue or postcode
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some residents will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Halal isn’t offered
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
Afterwards we tidy up calmly.
Serving on plates is often easier.

FAQs for Bramshaw
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Is Bramshaw too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What time do you serve?
Choose the time, and we’ll be ready.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you cook in the kitchen?
In the grounds, never in the kitchen.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your care home event for a quote.
Can you do soft food?
Modified textures are best done by the home; your team prepares those portions.
