Care home hog roast for Hillingdon
How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In late May, sunset in Hillingdon is about 8:55pm, so residents and families can stay outside late.
- Your activities lead or manager gets in touch with a date.
- Photos of the grounds help us choose a safe 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.
How to prepare
- Name a contact for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

Care home hog roast in Hillingdon, carved to order
Some homes book a hog roast to thank their staff. We’re often asked to cater seasonal events and sheltered housing gatherings, serving new potatoes, roast potatoes and rotisserie chicken.
In Hillingdon, we cook in the home’s garden or car park. Our chef carves in front of your residents, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What if our house in Hillingdon has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Could you cook in Norman Leddy Memorial Gardens?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.

Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.

How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.

We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
