How it works
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. In Great Rollright, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so winter hog roast days are best kept to 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.
- Lunch is carved and served, and we pack away quietly afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Think about shelter for your residents
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
How to get a price
