  • An activities lead or manager as contact

How our care home hog roast works in Frilford

You know your residents best, so we follow your guidance and give you full allergen details. Whether it’s open afternoons and thank-you meals for staff, we can cook new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and thinly carved roast pork.

Rural homes around Frilford may have plenty of outdoor space, so residents can enjoy the garden while lunch cooks. The carving happens right in front of your residents, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

For planners, venues and organisers

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Instead of organising a trip, it is easier for everyone to enjoy. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Why book our hog roast in Frilford

  • Fresh carving at the serving station
  • Planned to your running order

  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

See how we price or what a hog roast costs.

Planning for dietary needs

You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:

  • Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
  • Include staff and visitors in your numbers
  • Halal is not offered
  • Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen

We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.

Rotisserie chicken is an alternative to pork.

How the day works

We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Late-September sunset in Frilford is about 7:10pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.

  1. Your activities lead or manager gets in touch with a date.
  2. Photos of the grounds help us choose a safe spot.
  3. Your kitchen team tells us about diets and textures.
  4. On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
  5. After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.

Preparing for the day

  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
  • Gather dietary requirements early

About the food

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Prices and what affects them

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • The serving time and how long we’re on site
  • Menu choices and extras
  • Travel to Frilford

For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Details that help

When you contact us, it helps to include:

  • Rough numbers
  • The address or postcode
  • A picture of the cooking area
  • Which meats and sides you’d like
