At the heart of any private event or luxury dinner party, is great food. But to ensure your guests leave with nothing but praise, you’ll need top-tier catering services.
Goode Co. Catering and Events provides a world-class experience, with a perfect blend of genuine Texan hospitality and professional catering sophistication.
Our experience and unbeatable menus bring sophistication, logistical ease, and authentic Texan touch to any private event – from special celebrations to entertaining prospective clients.
If you’re planning a private event in Houston this year, you might need some tips and ideas – which is what we’re more than happy to share in this guide.
How Catering Can Transform Any Elegant Private Event
Once you’ve reserved the date for the big dinner, you’ll be tasked with planning an event that entertains your guests and makes them feel cared for.
The same old catering services won’t suffice. Instead, you can take a Texan catering approach that leaves your guests wowed. Here’s what Goode Co. Catering and Events promises:
Hassle-free
Hiring our Catering Services in Houston gives you the space to focus on socializing with a relaxed spirit, by forgetting about the logistics. From smoking meats in advance to ensuring cutlery is laid out in style, our team makes your life easy.
And if there are any unexpected problems, we’re always prepared and nearby, with nine locations across the Houston area.
Professional Presentation
We’re no roadside grill. Our live cooking station is more akin to having your own private chef show on site.
Your guests will enjoy seeing the meat sizzle away in the background before being elegantly presented to them with the exemplary service of our Texan staff. From appetizers to drinks, there’s nothing better than a sophisticated presentation for that restaurant feel.
Irresistible Crafted Menus
Exemplary service is one thing, but it means nothing if the food choices aren’t on the same level.
Goode Co. Catering & Events offers full-service menus, with something for everyone. The food is fresh off the grill and has been fine-tuned from decades of feedback from our Restaurants in Houston.
Goode Co.’s Gourmet Catering Options for Luxury Dinner Parties
Our food stands out, with every piece of meat given a full dose of personality. From barbeque rubs to slow-smoked cuts, you and your guests will taste and smell the difference.
Here’s a look at some of our luxury dinner party catering menus:
Barbeque
In-house seasoned brisket, pork ribs, ham, turkey breast, chicken, and homemade sausage are all on offer in our full-service catering menus.
Using techniques and recipes that have been developed since 1977, you can choose between three carefully crafted menus served with exquisite homemade sides, jalapeño cheese bread, sauces, pickles, onions, jalapeños, mini desserts, and, of course, luxury ware.
Tex-Mex
Serve your guests a sensational taste of southern spice, with our gourmet Tex-Mex catering menu. You’ll first enjoy the aromas of live-fire grilling, before tucking into perfectly prepared Mexican rice, refried beans, homemade flour tortillas, and iced tea.
Customization is also on the menu, with your guests given the freedom of toppings including ripe avocados, lime, cilantro, tomatoes, jalapeños, onions, and roasted garlic.
Seafood
Let us serve up a small haul, big catch, or the full swell with our live-fire grilled seafood catering selection.
Fresh from the Gulf, these audacious summer tastes include Catfish fillet, salmon, redfish, Gulf shrimp, and oysters. All are served, with homemade sides, dinner rolls, tartar, cocktail sauces, iced tea, and mini desserts.
