Looking after everyone
Some residents will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
Carers can help residents choose and carry plates, while we serve.
China crockery is available on request.
What affects the price in Whaddon
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Distance from us
- Menu choices and extras
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Getting an accurate quote
When you contact us, please mention:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the event is
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Allergies we should know about
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your care home event: use our quote form.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a trip out, it is easier for everyone to enjoy. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why Whaddon hosts choose us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
How it works
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. By late September, the light in Whaddon goes at about 7:05pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.
- We plan with your manager and kitchen.
- You get a clear price.
- We cook in the grounds.
- We carve thinly and serve on plates.
- We tidy up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
