Care home hog roast in North Sheen, slow-roasted on site
You know your residents best, so we follow your guidance and give you full allergen details. We serve rotisserie chicken, apple sauce and thinly carved roast pork, and we’re regularly asked to cater home anniversaries and days for relatives.
Around North Sheen, getting equipment to a care home garden can mean a side gate or a rear entrance, so we check the route in with the manager beforehand. 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.

Ask about gluten-free rolls.

Step by step
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. By late September, the light in North Sheen goes at about 7:05pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.
- We plan with your manager and kitchen.
- We send a quote.
- We cook in the grounds.
- We carve thinly and serve on plates.
- We tidy up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

What we serve, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, which keeps it hot and moist.
What a hog roast costs
There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Crockery choices
- How long the roast and service take
- Numbers
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
