Care home hog roast in Conyer, slow-roasted on site
Summer fêtes, open days and family days at care homes in Conyer suit a hog roast, with residents, staff and visitors eating together. For family days with visitors and staff appreciation days, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, roast potatoes and thinly carved roast pork.
At a rural home near Conyer, access matters so we can plan our route. Our chef carves in front of your residents, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
Where the roaster can go in Conyer
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:
- A level outdoor area
- Sign-off from management
- Clear of ambulance and delivery access
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
What we serve

How the day works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Winter afternoons in Conyer are short, with sunset at about 3:50pm, so winter hog roast days are best kept to 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.
How to prepare
- Send final numbers in good time
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Stuffing typically contains gluten
We clear away quietly.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
