Step by step
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. For a summer hog roast day in Tillington, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In December, with dark by about 4:00pm, lunchtime is best.

Questions from Tillington
Do you come out to small places like Tillington?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is Tillington from London?
About 42 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Where do you cook at a care home?
Outdoors under cover, on a level spot clear of emergency access and away from opening windows.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some residents won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Stuffing typically contains gluten
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
We arrive early and set up outdoors, following your sign-in and safety rules.
Chicken can be added.
A hog roast or other catering?
