How much does a hog roast cost?

Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Do you cook in the kitchen?

Can residents with swallowing difficulties have the hog roast?
Texture-modified meals should be prepared by the home’s kitchen to each resident’s plan. We’ll give your team the information they need.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Care home hog roast in Langley, slow-roasted on site
For residents, we carve thinly and serve on plates, rather than in rolls if that’s easier. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. Popular choices include new potatoes, thinly carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater community open days and anniversaries of the home.
Smaller homes around Langley may only have a modest garden, so send us a picture and we will tell you honestly whether the roaster fits. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Next to the usual lunch, a hog roast brings the event to residents. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.

- Access to the cooking area
- Season and day of the week
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- How many people are eating
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- An estimate of numbers
- Where the event is
- Which meats and sides you’d like

Diets, allergies and alternatives

- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
Your team helps residents as needed, while we serve.
Rotisserie chicken is an alternative to pork.
How it works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. For a summer hog roast day in Langley, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- You tell us when, how many and where.
- We confirm the spot with your manager and quote.
- On the day we set up outdoors and roast through the morning.
- The chef carves and our staff serve residents.
- We clear away quietly and leave the grounds tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
