- Flat ground in the grounds
- Someone to meet us

Queensbury is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, we take the cooking off your team. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Why us?
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Carved by our chef in front of your residents
- Sides to make it a full meal

About the food
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Queensbury questions
Which station is closest to Queensbury?
The closest is Kenton station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
What if our house in Queensbury has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Can residents with swallowing difficulties have the hog roast?
We don’t prepare texture-modified meals; your team prepares those portions.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
The process
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. In summer, Queensbury has daylight until about 9:20pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime event is better.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- Photos of the grounds help us choose a safe spot.
- The kitchen shares residents’ dietary needs with us.
- Residents can see and smell the roast from the morning.
- After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.
How to prepare
- Name a contact for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Think about shelter for your residents
