Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Halal is not offered
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
A named contact in the home helps on the day.
Roast or new potatoes and apple sauce make it a full meal.
Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

How it works
Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. For a summer hog roast day in Tubney, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden events easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- Your activities lead or manager gets in touch with a date.
- We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
- The kitchen shares residents’ dietary needs with us.
- Residents can see and smell the roast from the morning.
- Lunch is carved and served, and we pack away quietly afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact for the day
- Think about shelter for your residents
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
