Care home hog roast in Chinbrook
The process
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. In summer, Chinbrook has daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden events easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- We start with the date, numbers of residents, staff and visitors, and the time.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- On the day we set up outdoors and roast through the morning.
- We carve and serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
- We clear away quietly and leave the grounds tidy.
How to prepare
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

For event organisers in Chinbrook
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Looking after everyone
Some residents will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents

Common questions in Chinbrook
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Chinbrook?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Could you cook in Chinbrook Meadows?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can you fit around mealtimes?
Choose the time, and we’ll be ready.
Do you cook in the kitchen?
Outdoors under cover, on a level spot clear of emergency access.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.

Planning the cooking spot
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- Away from windows that open and residents’ rooms
- A dining room, lounge or shaded garden
- A level spot in the garden or car park
As a London location, Chinbrook is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
