- How dietary needs are handled
- How many staff will carve and serve
Step by step
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. In summer, Faygate has daylight until about 9:20pm, which makes garden events easy. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime event is better.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
- The kitchen shares residents’ dietary needs with us.
- Residents can see and smell the roast from the morning.
- Lunch is carved and served, and we pack away quietly afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

Looking after everyone
Some residents won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Request thin slices
- Tell us about dietary needs in advance
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
Your team helps residents as needed, while we serve.
Rotisserie chicken is an alternative to pork.
