Summertime. Long, comfortable afternoons. Sunlight well past early evening into the early night. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres out on the deck or in the yard. Fire up the grill. Everything from hot dogs and hamburgers to steak and shrimp is offered in our extensive BBQ packages. Take a look at the menus below to stimulate your thoughts, and then call one of our event coordinators who will share our complete grill menu selections with you. All you have to do after that is make up the guest list.
It’s that easy.
