Is there a better beef option than brisket for catering? The short answer: not really. Brisket hits the perfect balance of flavor, tenderness, and consistency, making it a crowd favorite for events of any size.

Other beef options have their challenges:

Prime rib: Delicious but tricky, can dry out when held for service or travel.

Roast beef: Often lean and can end up tough or dry without careful preparation.

Sirloin or ribeye: Great at the table but not ideal for large catering events where timing and consistency matter.

Brisket, on the other hand, holds up well when transported, stays juicy, and keeps its rich, smoky flavor even for larger groups. That’s why it’s our go-to for catering, you can count on every guest enjoying the same tender, flavorful bite.

Waiting to Book? Tomorrow Might Be Too Late.
We pride ourselves on being flexible and making the process as easy as possible for you. The earlier you book, the better, it gives us time to adjust portions, add menu items, or make changes if your guest count shifts. Every event is different, but early notice always helps us make sure your catering is just right.

Ever wonder how we figure out how much food to serve at your event? Here’s a little peek behind the scenes from our catering team:

Entrees vs. Sides
Entrees: about 1/3 lb of protein per person
Sides: about 1/2 lb per person

Open houses are a bit different since guests are usually stopping at multiple homes and aren’t as hungry.

In those cases, we adjust a bit:
Entrees: 1/4–1/3 lb
Sides: 1/3–1/2 lb

When it comes to your menu, you have options. We usually recommend:
2 proteins per event
3 sides (2 hot, 1 cold)

This gives your guests plenty of variety without leaving you with too many leftovers. Your menu, your way!

Ever wonder how we decide what makes it onto the catering menu? It’s a combination of careful planning and guest feedback.

We focus on flavors our guests love and often ask for your input, what dishes do you enjoy most at events?

We track which menu items sell the best and why, make sure portion sizes work for groups of all sizes, and choose dishes that travel well so your food arrives fresh.

Every item is tested to make sure it hits the perfect balance of flavor and convenience.
