Care home hog roast for Littleton
About our care home hog roast in Littleton
We roast through the morning and serve at the time that suits the home’s routine, whether that is lunch or an afternoon event. We serve roast potatoes, halloumi skewers and thinly carved roast pork, and typical bookings are for open afternoons and care home summer fairs.
Rural homes around Littleton may have plenty of outdoor space, perfect for residents to sit out while the hog roasts. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Season and day of the week
- How long the roast and service take
- Numbers
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.

How it works
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. By late September, the light in Littleton goes at about 7:05pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- 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.
- After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.
Preparing for the day
- Think about shelter for your residents
- Name a contact for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Stuffing generally contains gluten

- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
