Care home hog roast in East Sheen, carved to order
Some homes book a hog roast to thank their staff. Whether it’s themed days and families’ days, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, roast potatoes and apple sauce for your residents.
In East Sheen, care homes usually have limited outdoor space, so we plan a spot that keeps emergency access clear. Timings are planned around your care home event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. For a summer hog roast day in East Sheen, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.

Before you choose a spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- Clear of bedroom windows
- Away from emergency routes
- Sign-off from management
As a London location, East Sheen is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
