Default Buffet Set Up Ideas

Hello! We are getting into more "formal" catering type events. Nothing super fancy, but stuff where I still want the presentation to be nicer than our normal row of chafing equipment. Pinterest has tons of buffet line pics but most are over the top for what I am looking for and not BBQ. I was wondering if any of you had pics of buffet lines you have set up? Thanks!

I'd be happy to post a few but someone would have to tell me how they are doing photos on the Brethren since PhotoBucket changed because I'm not sure how to do it now.

Twyford BBQ in Jacksonville, IL uses steam pans that are clad in old barnwood or something. It looks classy and rustic all at the same time. He just drops the foil pans in them and he's ready to go.

What's the heat source? Seems like either the sterno doesnt get much air or might light the wood on fire.

We used reclaimed wood just like this and for extra points put burlap squares under the chafing dishes for presentation purposes...

Shockingly they never caught fire

Just remember, Hobby Lobby is your friend. My wife gets almost all of our catering stuff from there as far as decorative things go.
