Care home hog roast in Weston
About our care home hog roast in Weston
We roast outdoors under cover in the garden or car park, on a spot that keeps emergency access clear and away from opening windows. Popular choices include roast potatoes, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and we’re frequently booked for home anniversaries and retirement housing events.
Country homes near Weston often have big gardens with views, so residents can enjoy the garden while lunch cooks. Our chef carves in front of your residents, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Questions from Weston
Is Weston close to London?
Roughly 57 miles from the centre of London.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Who serves?
You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Halal isn’t offered
We set up under cover in the grounds, following the home’s procedures.
Roast or new potatoes and apple sauce make it a full meal.

- Away from emergency routes
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Next to a buffet, hot carved pork on a plate is easier to manage for many residents.
