So i have been cooking BBQ for a couple years, done a few comps and have catered for small events before. This year i catered for my works christmas party (40 people) and one of the attendees offered me a catering contract for two events (these are yearly events) for roughly 400 people each event. Both will be buffet style where i just need to supply the food and walk away. Not sure on how many Meats/sides they are looking for at this time. I dont want to get into too much detail, but there is a strong possibility for more of these events to come up (same size) as well.
Now, I've never done anything this big before, so here is what i know that ill need:
Business License
Health Department certification
Commercial Kitchen
New smoker (currently have a YS640)
food transportation (cambros?)
Health dept/license/kitchen i should be able to take care of myself, but what im really curious about is what i should look for in a new smoker (FEC), and what about food transportation? I know that eventually (maybe now?) i will need a trailer with power/sink etc.
whats everyones thoughts/advice on this?
