Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
- Halal isn’t offered
We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
Add potatoes and apple sauce.
Care home hog roast in Brookhampton, slow-roasted on site
Pork can be carved thinly and served on plates with potatoes and apple sauce, rather than in rolls if that’s easier. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. We serve apple sauce, roast potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for day centre events and retirement community days.
Country homes near Brookhampton often have big gardens with views, so residents can enjoy the garden while lunch cooks. Timings are planned around your care home event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
