About our care home hog roast in Remenham
Every hog roast day is planned with your care and kitchen teams: the cooking spot, numbers and serving arrangements. Typical bookings include care home summer fairs and anniversaries of the home, serving thinly carved roast pork, new potatoes and apple sauce.
At a rural home near Remenham, access matters. 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.

A hog roast compared with other options
Instead of organising a trip, it is easier for everyone to enjoy. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What you get with us
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Carved to order by a chef

Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
We keep the cooking area away from residents’ windows and paths.
Add potatoes and apple sauce.

What we serve, dish by dish

Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll, just as they should.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Your questions about a hog roast day in Remenham
Is Remenham close to London?
Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Could you cook in Fawley Court and Temple Island?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can residents with swallowing difficulties have the hog roast?
We don’t prepare texture-modified meals; your team prepares those portions.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Can you fit around mealtimes?
Choose the time, and we will plan the roast around it.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
For event organisers in Remenham
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
How it works
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Late-September sunset in Remenham is about 7:05pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.
- The home tells us the date and numbers.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- The roast starts early.
- We serve inside or out.
- We clear away quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Let us know about tight access
Ask for a quote
