About our care home hog roast in Hell Corner
A hog roast day gives residents something to look forward to. The smell drifts through the home, residents can watch the carving, and families can join in. Typical bookings include family days with visitors and open afternoons, serving thinly carved roast pork, roast potatoes and new potatoes.
For a care home near Hell Corner, tell us about lanes and the drive. The carving happens right in front of your residents, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

A hog roast compared with other options
For residents who need modified textures, your kitchen looks after those portions. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why book with us
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Carved by our chef in front of your residents
- Planned to your running order
