Care home hog roast in South Kenton, slow-roasted on site

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 summer fêtes and sheltered housing gatherings, we’ll put together a menu of thinly carved roast pork, roast potatoes and apple sauce.

In South Kenton, care homes typically have limited outdoor space, so we agree a cooking spot clear of ambulance access and windows. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Our full booking checklist

Working with your venue

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.

Before you choose a spot

It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:

  • A named contact on the day
  • The manager’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • Clear of bedroom windows

South Kenton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

What we serve

  • New potatoes
  • Vegan option (Ve)
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • Roast pork, carved
  • Stuffing and apple sauce
  • Roast potatoes
  • Salads
  • Rotisserie chicken

Why book with us

  • We bring everything to cook and serve
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

Prices and what affects them

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • The serving time and how long we’re on site
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Plates or china
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays

What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

The process

Your timings come first. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Late-September sunset in South Kenton is about 7:05pm, so we suggest a lunchtime serving in autumn.

  1. We start with the date, numbers of residents, staff and visitors, and the time.
  2. We confirm the spot with your manager and quote.
  3. We arrive early and start the roast.
  4. We carve and serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
  5. We tidy up and leave calmly.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about tight access
  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

FAQs for South Kenton

Can you do a hog roast in Preston Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.

What if our house in South Kenton has no side access?

Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

What’s the price?

Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.

When do you start roasting?

A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.

Plates with thin slices are easy to arrange.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

How far ahead should we book?
