About the food
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan residents can have a vegan burger or sausage, so nobody misses out.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.
The process
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Late May in Sevington has light until about 8:45pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- 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
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
