Questions from Deane
Which station is closest to Deane?
Overton station, about 2 miles west of the centre.
Is Deane close to London?
Roughly 51 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do you provide allergen information?
Allergen details are provided.
What about texture-modified diets?
We don’t prepare texture-modified meals; your team prepares those portions.
Can families and staff join in?
It works well as a day with families.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some residents won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Halal is not offered
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Request thin slices
Your team helps residents as needed, while we serve.
Chicken can be added.
Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
For residents who need modified textures, the kitchen prepares their portions while others enjoy the roast. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.

On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. Late May in Deane has light until about 8:55pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
