Care home hog roast in Grove Park
The process
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. For a summer hog roast day in Grove Park, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime event is better.
- We start with the date and numbers.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- We roast through the morning.
- We serve inside or out.
- We pack up calmly.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Care home hog roast for your care home event in Grove Park
Serving times fit around the home’s day, whether that is lunch or an afternoon event. Typical bookings include retirement housing events and home anniversaries, serving rotisserie chicken, roast potatoes and halloumi skewers.
Around Grove Park, getting equipment to a care home garden can mean a side gate or a rear entrance, so we check the route in with the manager beforehand. The carving happens right in front of your residents, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
