How our care home hog roast works in Felbridge
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. We’re often asked to cater summer fêtes and seasonal events, serving apple sauce, thinly carved roast pork and new potatoes.
Country homes near Felbridge frequently have big gardens with views, perfect for residents to sit out while the hog roasts. The hog is roasted on site at your care home event, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your residents.

A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Request thin slices
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Tell us who doesn’t eat pork
We arrive early and set up outdoors, following your sign-in and safety rules.
Rotisserie chicken is an alternative to pork.
For planners, venues and organisers
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
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.

- We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
- Your kitchen team tells us about diets and textures.
- On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
- Lunch is carved and served, and we pack away quietly afterwards.
