About our care home hog roast in London Fields
We roast through the morning and serve at the time that suits the home’s routine, whether that’s lunch or an afternoon event. For retirement community days and day centre events, we’ll put together a menu of roast potatoes, new potatoes and thinly carved roast pork for your residents.
In London Fields, care homes usually have limited outdoor space, so we agree a cooking spot clear of ambulance access and windows. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Organising for someone else?
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
- Stuffing typically contains gluten
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
A named contact in the home helps on the day.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
How it works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. In London Fields, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- We plan with your manager and kitchen.
- We send a quote.
- We set up outdoors, clear of access routes.
- We carve thinly and serve on plates.
- We tidy up and go.
Before we arrive
- Send final numbers in good time
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
