Care home hog roast in Mytchett, carved to order
We roast outdoors under cover in the garden or car park, well away from ambulance routes and away from opening windows. We serve halloumi skewers, apple sauce and roast potatoes, and typical bookings are for day centre lunches and community open days.
Care homes around Mytchett are frequently in converted houses with gardens. Tell us about access. The hog is roasted on site at your care home event, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
What happens on the day
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Late-September sunset in Mytchett is about 7:05pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.
