Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request thin slices
- Tell us about dietary needs in advance
We set up under cover in the grounds, following the home’s procedures.

How it works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. For a summer hog roast day in Crampmoor, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden events easy. In December, with dark by about 4:00pm, lunchtime is best.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
- Your kitchen team tells us about diets and textures.
- Residents can see and smell the roast from the morning.
- After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.
