Care home hog roast in East Stourmouth, slow-roasted on site
We plan the day with your manager and kitchen team: the cooking spot, numbers and serving arrangements. For staff thank-you lunches and sheltered housing gatherings, we will put together a menu of halloumi skewers, roast potatoes and apple sauce and more.
At a rural home near East Stourmouth, access matters. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Late-September sunset in East Stourmouth is about 7:00pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.
