A few details

Before we
fire up the smoker.

How far ahead should I book?

Reach out when you have a date and estimated headcount, especially for weekends and holidays. We’ll confirm availability and booking requirements with your quote.

How are delivery and travel priced?

The first 10 one-way driving miles from Menifee are free. Beyond that, drop-off is $3 per additional mile and full-service travel is $4 per additional mile, with no base fee. These charges cover the normal round trip. Full service below 100 guests requires a custom quote.

Enter your event ZIP code for an estimate. We calculate a road route from a Menifee reference point (92584) to a representative point in your ZIP area, not your exact venue. We confirm the actual distance, free-delivery eligibility, and service availability with your final quote. Additional vehicles, equipment pickup, parking, and extended travel time may affect pricing. If we can’t look up your ZIP, you can still request a quote.

How should I care for my drop-off catering?

After delivery, you’re responsible for serving, temperature checks, and monitoring warming equipment. For the best flavor and texture, plan to serve promptly and enjoy within two hours of delivery while maintaining safe temperatures.

Keep hot food at 140°F or above and cold food at 40°F or below, checking with a food thermometer. Keep trays covered between servings. For water-bath chafing dishes, follow the manufacturer’s water-level instructions and never let the water pan run dry; prolonged heat can dry out food.

Refrigerate perishable food within two hours without temperature control, or one hour when the surrounding temperature is above 90°F. Discard food left out beyond those limits. The two-hour quality recommendation does not replace safe temperature control. FDA buffet-care guidance.

What about warming equipment or dietary needs?

Tell us what your venue provides and any vegetarian meals or allergies to consider. We’ll confirm equipment and menu options before booking. Our preparation environment is not allergen-free.
