About our care home hog roast in Furner's Green
For residents, we carve thinly and serve on plates, rather than in rolls if that is easier. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. Whether it is garden fêtes and retirement community days, we will put together a menu of new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and thinly carved roast pork.
At a rural home near Furner's Green, access matters. Our chef carves in front of your residents, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Access to the cooking area
- How long the roast and service take
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The date and time of the event
- Roughly how many people
- What the outdoor space is like
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.
What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Late May in Furner's Green has light until about 8:50pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- We start with the date, numbers of residents, staff and visitors, and the time.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- We set up under cover and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
- We clear away quietly and leave the grounds tidy.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
