Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Request thin slices
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Stuffing usually contains gluten
- Count families and staff too
We keep the cooking area away from residents’ windows and paths.
Rotisserie chicken is an alternative to pork.
The process
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Late-September sunset in Cippenham is about 7:05pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.
- The home tells us the date and numbers.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We serve inside or out.
- We clear away quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
Getting a price
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the care home event is and roughly how many. A photo of the cooking area helps. Send us your details through our quote form.
