Care home hog roast for your care home event in Kent Street
For residents, we carve thinly and serve on plates, which is easier for many people than a roll. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. Whether it’s family days with visitors and care home summer fairs, we can cook thinly carved roast pork, new potatoes and apple sauce.
Rural homes around Kent Street may have plenty of outdoor space, perfect for residents to sit out while the hog roasts. Timings are planned around your care home event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
