Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to:

  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Plates or china
  • Time on site
  • Menu choices and extras

A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Where the event is
  • An estimate of numbers

We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your care home event: send us your details through our quote form.

What we serve, dish by dish

Roast pork

Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.

Stuffing and apple sauce

Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.

  • A spot that keeps access clear
  • Flat ground in the grounds

How the day works

Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. In late May, sunset in Strettington is about 8:50pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.

  1. The home tells us the date, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the grounds and send a price.
  3. We arrive early and start the roast.
  4. We serve in the dining room or garden, as you prefer.
  5. Afterwards we pack up quietly.

Preparing for the day

  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Send final numbers in good time
  • Think about shelter for your residents
