For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
We arrive early and set up outdoors, following the home’s procedures.
Rotisserie chicken is an alternative to pork.
Questions from Brunswick
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How far is Brunswick from London?
About 47 miles from central London.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
How do you handle allergies?
You will get allergen details for everything. Gluten-free rolls can be provided.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Compared with a normal lunch from the kitchen, a hog roast brings the event to residents. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why book with us
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- We bring everything to cook and serve

The menu, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
What a hog roast costs
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every care home event is different. The main factors are:
- The number of people
- Distance from us
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Plates or china
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Details that help
For a quick, accurate price, tell us:
- Dietary requirements
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Where the event is

How the day works
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. In late May, sunset in Brunswick is about 8:50pm, so residents and families can stay outside late.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- Photos of the grounds help us choose a safe spot.
- The kitchen shares residents’ dietary needs with us.
- On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
- After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.
How to prepare
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Send final numbers in good time
