How the day works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. For a summer hog roast day in Catsfield, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:15pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- Photos of the grounds help us choose a safe spot.
- Your kitchen team tells us about diets and textures.
- Residents can see and smell the roast from the morning.
- Lunch is carved and served, and we pack away quietly afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
