1) Q: I would like to do some substitutions. Is there an extra charge?

A: All side dishes and desserts within the Upscale Buffet Menu can be substituted at no additional charge.

2) Q: I’m not crazy about buffet style service, why do you recommend it?

A: Despite the fact that this is a higher end menu package, BBQ food is best served in a relaxed and casual format. We want your guests to customize what they want on their own plate. Our staff enjoy interacting with your guests, fielding questions about ingredients and cooking methods. If you are concerned about wait times please don’t be.

A: We use a special high quality plate, fork and knife. They are exceptionally durable and attractive, and included in the menu price.

4) Q: I am considering a full rental package, maybe a tent and even a bartender. Can you help?
