Care home hog roast in Medmenham, carved to order
Pork can be carved thinly and served on plates with potatoes and apple sauce, which is easier for many people than a roll. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. For seasonal events and sheltered housing gatherings, we’ll put together a menu of apple sauce, thinly carved roast pork and roast potatoes for your residents.
Country homes near Medmenham often have big gardens with views, perfect for residents to sit out while the hog roasts. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.
