Care home hog roast in Brimsdown
For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
How our care home hog roast works in Brimsdown
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. We are often asked to cater sheltered housing gatherings and staff thank-you lunches, with new potatoes, roast potatoes and apple sauce.
London care homes around Brimsdown often sit on busy streets with tight access, so we check the route in with the manager beforehand. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
For residents who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a buffet, a plated hot meal suits residents better. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. In summer, Brimsdown has daylight until about 9:20pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In winter, dark by about 3:50pm, a lunchtime event is better.
