Your team helps residents as needed.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll, just as they should.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy.
How it works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. By late September, the light in Salford goes at about 7:05pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.
- The home tells us the date, numbers and serving time.
- We agree the cooking spot, clear of emergency access, and quote.
- On the day we set up outdoors and roast through the morning.
- The chef carves and our staff serve residents.
- We tidy up and leave calmly.
How to prepare
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How many people are eating
- The date and time of year
- Distance from us
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
