Milton Keynes questions
Could you cook in South Loughton Valley park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
How far is Milton Keynes from London?
Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you need much space at base?
Typically, if there’s a level, open spot for the roaster under cover. We will agree it with your location manager.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Do you work to set times?
That is exactly how we work.
Do you go to remote locations?
We can, given access details. Tell us about tracks and ground.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Stuffing usually contains gluten
