The process
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In late May, sunset in Wentworth is about 8:55pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- Your activities lead or manager gets in touch with a date.
- Photos of the grounds help us choose a safe spot.
- Your kitchen team tells us about diets and textures.
- On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
- After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.
Preparing for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
