How our care home hog roast works in Limpsfield
For care homes in Limpsfield, a hog roast day is a real occasion. Residents can watch the carving and share the meal with family and staff. On the menu are roast potatoes, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes, and typical bookings are for anniversaries of the home and seasonal events.
Rural homes around Limpsfield may have plenty of outdoor space, so residents can enjoy the garden while lunch cooks. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
What a hog roast costs
Things that change the price:
- How many people are eating
- Distance from us
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Getting an accurate quote
To get the best quote, tell us:
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rough numbers
- A photo of the cooking area
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the care home event is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your residents will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In late May, sunset in Limpsfield is about 8:50pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- You tell us when, how many and where.
- We agree the cooking spot, clear of emergency access, and quote.
- We set up under cover and get the roast going.
- We serve in the dining room or garden, as you prefer.
- Afterwards we pack up quietly.
Before we arrive
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
