About our care home hog roast in Single Street
Pork can be carved thinly and served on plates with potatoes and apple sauce, which is easier for many people than a roll. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. For community open days and day centre lunches, we can cook rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and halloumi skewers for your residents.
In Single Street, we cook in the home’s garden or car park, as agreed with the manager. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your residents.

The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and it suits fussy eaters.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Next to the usual lunch, a hog roast brings the event to residents. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
