Care home hog roast for Nutfield
Care home hog roast in Nutfield, carved to order
For residents, we carve thinly and serve on plates, which is easier for many people than a roll. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. On the menu are apple sauce, roast potatoes and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for garden fêtes and staff appreciation days.
For a care home near Nutfield, tell us about lanes and the drive so we can plan our route. The carving happens right in front of your residents, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, so it stays hot and juicy.
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.
