Wineham questions
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Wineham?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can residents with swallowing difficulties have the hog roast?
Texture-modified meals should be prepared by the home’s kitchen to each resident’s plan. We will share allergen and menu details.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What if things run late?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your residents will want somewhere dry to eat.
What allergens are in the food?
We provide full allergen information for every dish. Gluten-free rolls can be provided.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
For event organisers in Wineham
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Next to staff cooking, we take the cooking off your team. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Request thin slices
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Count families and staff too
Your team helps residents as needed, while we serve.
Serving on plates is often easier.
