About our care home hog roast in Sedlescombe
Some homes book a hog roast to thank their staff, served between shifts. For days for relatives and anniversaries of the home, we can cook thinly carved roast pork, roast potatoes and halloumi skewers.
Rural care homes near Sedlescombe can feel a long way from the bustle of town, so a hog roast day is a big event. 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.
