- How long the roast and service take

Common questions in Martyr's Green
Do you come out to small places like Martyr's Green?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do a hog roast in The Forest and the Highlands?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can visitors eat too?
Of course: include them in your numbers.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Do you serve the food?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Halal is not offered
