Care home hog roast for your care home event in Streatley

Whether it’s summer fêtes and anniversaries of the home, we’ll put together a menu of roast potatoes, halloumi skewers and new potatoes for your residents.

Step by step
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In Streatley, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
- The kitchen shares residents’ dietary needs with us.
- On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
- Lunch is carved and served, and we pack away quietly afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Give us a contact number for the day
