About our care home hog roast in Broxhill
You know your residents best, so we follow your guidance and give you full allergen details. We’re frequently asked to cater garden fêtes and day centre lunches, serving apple sauce, thinly carved roast pork and new potatoes.
Near Broxhill, residents may not get out much, so a hog roast day is a big event. The carving happens right in front of your residents, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
