A good website will work wonders if people can find it. Regarding yelp I would ask people to post what they thought of the food/experience.
It's kind of hard to offer freebies like a restaurant when people check in (4Square) but I would tell the host if X amount of people check in to my catered event on FB or FourSquare I'll take off X%the bill.
You want people liking your biz on FB and have then tweet pictures via twitter.
I would perhaps offer a small size of your secret rub to anyone at your event that posts it on a social media site.
Also what I would do is get a smartphone and do a search for social media apps. Then install one at a time and register your biz on it.
And have those SM sites icons printed on your biz cards.
Hope this helps and best of luck!

Gaspipe,
You seem to know a lot about the different social medias, for those of us that remember the world before digital watches and the abacus, could you please give a brief summary of the ones you mentioned above.
