For a care home in Foxbury, a corner of the garden or car park usually works, as agreed with the manager. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.

Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Can you carve thinly?
We will serve however suits your residents.
Will there be enough to go round?

The process
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. Late-September sunset in Foxbury is about 7:05pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.
- 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.
- On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
- After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.
Preparing for the day
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Name a contact for the day

What affects the price in Foxbury
Each price is built from:
- Travel to Foxbury
- Whether you want china
- Time on site
- How easy it is to reach the spot
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- A photo of the cooking area
- Where the event is
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Rough numbers
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.
What we serve, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing usually contains gluten.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Organising for someone else?
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
A hog roast compared with other options
