Care home hog roast in Edmonton, slow-roasted on site
For residents, we carve thinly and serve on plates, rather than in rolls if that is easier. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. For sheltered housing gatherings and open afternoons, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, apple sauce and halloumi skewers for your residents.
Around Edmonton, getting equipment to a care home garden can mean a side gate or a rear entrance, so we agree access and timings with the home first. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Common questions in Edmonton
What if our house in Edmonton has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
Could you cook in Pymmes Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
What time do you serve?
Choose the time, and we will be ready.
Prices and what affects them
Things that change the price:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Season and day of the week
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- How many people are eating
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What to tell us
When you enquire, please mention:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Where the event is
- Allergies we should know about
- Which meats and sides you’d like
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: send us your details through our quote form.
What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we’ll plan the vegan burgers or sausages.
Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Count families and staff too
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Halal is not offered
We keep the cooking area away from residents’ windows and paths.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
Before you choose a spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Away from windows that open and residents’ rooms
- A named contact on the day
- Approval from the home
Edmonton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
From the roaster
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegan option (Ve)
- Salads
- Rotisserie chicken
- Halloumi skewers (V)

What else we do in Edmonton
Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
What happens on the day
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. For a summer hog roast day in Edmonton, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden events easy. In December, with dark by about 3:50pm, lunchtime is best.
