Care home hog roast for your care home event in Enfield
A hog roast day gives residents something to look forward to. The smell drifts through the home, residents can watch the carving, and families can join in. For anniversaries of the home and open days, we can cook halloumi skewers, roast potatoes and new potatoes for your residents.
London care homes around Enfield frequently sit on busy streets with tight access, so we check the route in with the manager beforehand. The hog is roasted on site at your care home event, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your residents.

FAQs for Enfield
What if our house in Enfield has no side access?
Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
What’s the nearest station to Enfield?
Enfield Town station, in Enfield itself.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will confirm the space with your quote.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
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.

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

Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
- Halal is not offered
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
Give us a contact, such as the activities lead.
Add potatoes and apple sauce.
The process
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. In summer, Enfield has daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden events easy. In winter, dark by about 3:50pm, a lunchtime event is better.
- We plan with your manager and kitchen.

- We carve thinly and serve on plates.
- We leave the grounds tidy.
Preparing for the day

Planning the cooking spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- Clear of ambulance and delivery access
- A named contact on the day
- Away from opening windows
Enfield is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we serve
- Rotisserie chicken
- Vegan option (Ve)

Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
