Care home hog roast in Seaford, carved to order
Some homes book a hog roast to thank their staff, served between shifts. Typical bookings include summer fêtes and staff thank-you lunches, serving rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and new potatoes.
In Seaford, sheltered housing schemes and day centres typically have shared outdoor space, where a hog roast works well. Our chef carves in front of your residents, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

About the food
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.

Questions from Seaford
How far is Seaford from London?
About 51 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Could you cook in Seaford Head Nature Reserve?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
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.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
Can you serve at lunch?
Serving time is up to you, lunch or an afternoon event.
What about residents who do not eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
Do you provide allergen information?
We provide full allergen information for every dish. Stuffing normally contains gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
The process
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your residents, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. By late September, the light in Seaford goes at about 7:05pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.
- We start with the date and numbers.
- We agree the cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts early.
- We carve and serve where you choose.
- We pack up calmly.
Getting ready for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
