Care home hog roast for Weybourne
How our care home hog roast works in Weybourne
Summer fêtes, open days and family days at care homes in Weybourne suit a hog roast, bringing everyone together over a meal. We serve new potatoes, thinly carved roast pork and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater retirement community days and family days with visitors.
Smaller homes around Weybourne may only have a modest garden, so send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly whether the roaster fits. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. By late September, the light in Weybourne goes at about 7:05pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.
- The home tells us the date, numbers and serving time.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- We arrive early and start the roast.
- We serve in the dining room or garden, as you prefer.
- Afterwards we pack up quietly.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Think about shelter for your residents

Planning the cooking spot
