How our care home hog roast works in Elm Park

The roaster cooks in the grounds, on a spot that keeps emergency access clear. For day centre events and home anniversaries, we can cook roast potatoes, apple sauce and halloumi skewers for your residents.

Around Elm Park, 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. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.

Elm Park questions

What’s the nearest station to Elm Park?

What if our house in Elm Park has no side access?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.

Can you cater in Elm Park?

We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.

Can you serve on plates?

Plates are frequently easier for residents.

How soon do you get booked up?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.

What’s the price?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.

For planners, venues and organisers

Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

A hog roast compared with other options

Instead of organising a trip, a hog roast at the home is easier for residents with mobility needs. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.

What you get with us

  • Carved to order by a chef
  • Planned to your running order
  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

Take a look at our pricing or the cost guide.

Prices and what affects them

Each price is built from:

  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Whether you want china
  • The journey to the venue

Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Getting an accurate quote

For a quick, accurate price, tell us:

  • The date and time of the event
  • Rough numbers
  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • The address or postcode

Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.

Planning the cooking spot

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:

  • A named contact on the day
  • Somewhere for residents to eat comfortably
  • Flat ground in the grounds

Elm Park 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.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

  • Stuffing usually contains gluten
  • Halal isn’t offered
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed

The roaster stays clear of busy paths and windows.

China crockery is available on request.

The process

Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. In Elm Park, December daylight ends around 3:50pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.

  1. You tell us when, how many and where.
  2. We agree the cooking spot, clear of emergency access, and quote.
  3. We set up under cover and get the roast going.
  4. The chef carves and our staff serve residents.
  5. We tidy up and leave calmly.

Preparing for the day

  • Think about shelter for your residents
  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
