How our care home hog roast works in White Waltham
We plan the day with your manager and kitchen team: where the roaster goes, who is eating and how food is served. Typical bookings include day centre lunches and family days with visitors, serving apple sauce, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken.
Rural care homes near White Waltham can feel a long way from the bustle of town, so a hog roast day is a big event. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.
What happens on the day
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. Winter afternoons in White Waltham are short, with sunset at about 3:55pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- The home tells us the date and numbers.
- We agree the cooking spot and quote.
- We roast through the morning.
- We carve and serve where you choose.
- We pack up calmly.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

- The number of people
- Plates or china
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Any venue rules

If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
