How our care home hog roast works in Hanwell
Your team knows each resident’s needs, so we provide full allergen information and work to your plan. We’re frequently asked to cater anniversaries of the home and days for relatives, with halloumi skewers, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken.
Care homes in Hanwell often have a small garden or car park, so we agree a cooking spot clear of ambulance access and windows. The hog is roasted on site at your care home event, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your residents.

Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Count families and staff too
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Request gluten-free rolls
Carers can help residents choose and carry plates, while we serve.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
