How our care home hog roast works in Little Coxwell
The roaster cooks in the grounds, well away from ambulance routes. We’re frequently asked to cater anniversaries of the home and family days with visitors, with new potatoes, apple sauce and rotisserie chicken.
Country homes near Little Coxwell frequently have big gardens with views, perfect for residents to sit out while the hog roasts. The carving happens right in front of your residents, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
