3 Tips For Any Catering Event

Here are the top 3 things you need to do for before a big catering event.

1. Preparation is the Key: you’ve got to start prepping days beforehand if you’re serving a lot of people.

2. Know the Event Details: if you’re planning on feeding lots of people at once, it’ll need different planning than if the meals get spaced out.

3. Timing is Everything: Even if you have to set up everything in stages, you’ve got to plan accordingly.

We’re planning to serve more than 9,000 at the Rocket Mortgage Classic this week. You think we did all this without f***ing planning?

Anything worth doing should be done the right way. Period.

I remember working here I believe around 2015 or 2016. I think we took the 2nd truck on the 1st ever catering. It's crazy to see where Mike is now. Life is crazy and you never take anything for granted.

Me and the team cater for 750 - 1, 000 people per day. I agree with everything this man is saying. Prep, prep, prep. One thing I will add is people must be trained well on the menu. There just isn't enough time sometimes to train mid service. Worked at some places where people are just winging it with recipes. LOL 😅

Went to help my friend do a catering for 650 people, and the day of I came in and it was a breeze. She had everything ready, 5 back up squeeze bottles, flat breads already made just need to put in oven, burger tops pre made, we were laughing and having fun with guests.

I manage to do together with my wife a 900 pax event and the food had to be served from 08:00 to 13:00. There was a sandwich, a juice and a fruit. We managed to make it and everyone was happy. I've had one of the biggest emotion in my life, after 36 hours of craziness we managed to go to sleep. Of course there were many things we prepared days before. It was an amazing experience anyway 💪💪💪💪

Catering is hard. Even after 3 years as a cook the catering orders over 3000$ are ridiculous and never really got easier. Especially when your have to open for the regular customers at the same time. In the beginning of my cooking i had a catering go out an hour late with missing items with that order.
