How it works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your residents will smell it long before they see it. In Broughton, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- The home tells us the date and numbers.
- We agree the cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts early.
- We serve inside or out.
- We pack up calmly.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

What affects the price in Broughton
The price comes down to:
- Whether you want china
- How long the roast and service take
- The journey to the venue
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Halal is not offered
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
A named contact in the home helps on the day.
Roast or new potatoes and apple sauce make it a full meal.
