The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy.
Step by step
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. In Cox Green, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so winter hog roast days are best kept to lunchtime.
- The home tells us the date, numbers and serving time.
- We agree the cooking spot, clear of emergency access, and quote.
- 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 tidy up and leave calmly.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Planning help
Working with your venue
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Looking after everyone
Some residents will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
Carers can help residents choose and carry plates.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Where the roaster can go in Cox Green

- A level spot in the garden or car park
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to staff cooking, your staff can focus on residents. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why book with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- All the equipment comes with us
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
