The Best Pot On The Beach

how it works
We show up an hour before you want to eat, set-up all the equipment and start cooking for your entire group. Sit back, relax and enjoy your favorite beverage while we cook. When cooking is complete, we drop all the yummy goodness onto a table (yours or ours) fully equipped with table cloth, plates, forks, knives, and all the other essential utensils and fix-ins for our Signature Seafood Boil.
While you enjoy the meal, we clean up our equipment and share local knowledge. When everyone is finished, we help bag up your leftovers, clean the table and dispose of any trash and even take it all away leaving you with nothing but a full belly and a vacation memory you'll be talking about long after.
HOW CAN I CHECK IF MY DATE IS AVAILABLE?
The fastest and easiest way to check availability and request a boil is to fill out our Book Your Boil form.
Okay, you caught us. It really is a 'request a quote' form but doesn’t Book Your Boil sound so much better? We think so and we can't bring ourselves to part with it. Just so you know how this works, after you submit the Book Your Boil form our catering manager will get back to you to :
1
Make sure your date is available and give you an alternative if it is not
2
Go over your order with you to make sure you’ve got everything you need.
3
Answer any outstanding questions you have about our process- we know not everyone is familiar with seafood boils!
Whether you’re trying to cater a wedding or cater dinner for 10 - the Book Your Boil form is the place to start!
