How our care home hog roast works in Dedworth
For residents, we carve thinly and serve on plates, rather than in rolls if that’s easier. Texture-modified meals should come from the home’s own kitchen. Typical bookings include home anniversaries and day centre lunches, with roast potatoes, new potatoes and thinly carved roast pork.
Smaller homes around Dedworth may only have a modest garden, so we check the space with photos first. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.

Working with your venue
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
The menu, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Your questions about a hog roast day in Dedworth
Can you do a hog roast in Sutherland Grange?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Dedworth?
The closest is Windsor & Eton Central station, roughly 1.7 miles away.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can you carve thinly?
Plates with thin slices are easy to arrange.
Looking after everyone
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
We can serve inside or out, as you prefer.
Serving on plates is often easier.
Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Late-September sunset in Dedworth is about 7:05pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.
- The home tells us the date and numbers.
- We agree the cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts early.
- We serve inside or out.
- We clear away quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Compared with a barbecue run by staff, your staff can focus on residents. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
