Minston’s Catering. A full service catering affair.

Holiday parties, by the pan.

Office parties and family gatherings, cooked at the scale they actually need. This is the menu built for feeding twenty-five people without anyone doing sums on the back of an envelope.

Entrees, half pan for 10 to 12
from $50
Full pan, 20 to 25
from $96
Cheese and fruit board
from $80
Desserts
by the dozen

Herb roast chicken breast, herb roasted turkey and jerk carved turkey sliced, spiral glazed ham. Sides that belong beside them: garlic roasted mashed potatoes, loaded mash, three cheese mac, smoked gouda mac, sweet potato souffle, cornbread dressing, green bean almondine, balsamic brussels sprouts with bacon.

Boards and platters to start — charcuterie, cheese and fruit, roasted vegetables with feta — sized small, medium or large by guest band rather than by weight, so you order for a room instead of for a kilo.

Desserts by the dozen: pecan pie, turtle brownies, cookie trays, chocolate covered strawberries. Salads by the large bowl to round it out.

Questions we get asked.

When should we book a holiday party?
December books up long before December. The site enforces three days' notice on pan food, but for a party in the first three weeks of December, weeks ahead is realistic.
How many people does a pan serve?
A half pan serves ten to twelve and a full pan twenty to twenty-five. Every item on the menu says which it is, so you can count guests rather than estimate portions.
Can you cater a party at our house?
Yes. Drop-off works for most home parties, and staff can come with it if you would rather not be serving your own guests.
Do you do carving on site?
Yes, chef carving and plating is $300 for four hours, then $80 an hour. For a turkey or a ham in front of guests, it is worth it.
