How our care home hog roast works in Harmondsworth
Serving times fit around the home’s day, whether that is lunch or an afternoon event. We are often asked to cater family days with visitors and residents’ themed days, serving roast potatoes, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers.
For a care home in Harmondsworth, a corner of the garden or car park typically works. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Planning for dietary needs
Some residents will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Halal isn’t offered
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
We keep the cooking area away from residents’ windows and paths.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing usually contains gluten.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some residents will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Organising for someone else?
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
