About our care home hog roast in Wooden Hill
Pork can be carved thinly and served on plates with potatoes and apple sauce, rather than in rolls if that’s easier. Texture-modified meals should come from the home’s own kitchen. Popular choices include apple sauce, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater days for relatives and anniversaries of the home.
Country homes near Wooden Hill frequently have big gardens with views, so residents can enjoy the garden while lunch cooks. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Working with your venue
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
How the day works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your residents will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. For a summer hog roast day in Wooden Hill, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden events easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
