Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Next to a buffet, a plated hot meal suits residents better. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally 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.
Why book with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Our staff serve and clear

- Count residents who need an alternative

We clear away quietly.

A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
Frilsham questions
Which station is closest to Frilsham?
The closest is Midgham station, roughly 4.3 miles away.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.
Can you fit around mealtimes?
We fit around the home’s routine, lunch or an afternoon event.
How the day works
Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. In late May, sunset in Frilsham is about 8:55pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- The home tells us the date, numbers and serving time.
- We confirm the spot with your manager and quote.
- On the day we set up outdoors and roast through the morning.
- We carve and serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
- Afterwards we pack up quietly.
Getting ready for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
