Maple Street Catering - BBQ

I cannot recommend Maple Street Catering highly enough. We contracted with them in July 2012 for…read moremy daughter's wedding October 2013. It was difficult finding vendors that would service NH since I live in Northern VA. We got lucky with Maple Street Catering. We did not do a traditional BBQ so know that Maple Street is not just that. We were going for "Rustic Elegance". They exceeded our expectations. Everything was outstanding, folks are still talking about the food and exceptional presentation. Lisa held my hand for 18 months, bless her heart. She also coordinated all the rentals from the tent, china, flatware, linens, port-a-potties to generator. You name it, she found it. Most of the food was cooked on site. Below is our menu. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented, buffet style. Hot chocolate and hot spiced cider served to guests upon arrival (outdoor wedding) Cocktail Hour: Cherry Tomatoes stuffed w/ Boursin Cream Cheese Sausage stuffed Mushrooms Pesto and Fresh Mozzarella Bruschetta Marinated and Grilled Shrimp w/a Lemon Tarragon and Cocktail Sauce Dinner: Plated Salad: Mixed Green Salad w/our Maple Balsamic Vinaigrette, Ranch and Blue Cheese Dressing Rolls and Breads w/Maple Butter **set in baskets on each table Garlic and Herb Cous Cous Garlic Mashed Potatoes Sweet Potato Casserole Asparagus w/a Lemon Butter Sauce Green Beans Brisket served w/ their homemade Whiskey BBQ Sauce and/or Horseradish Cream Fettuccine Alfredo w/Chicken Herb Encrusted Salmon We did do an open bar and I was delighted that the pricing was based on consumption and not by the hour. Brandon, the owner, is very knowledgeable about beer and wines, so please feel free to put your complete trust in his selections. You will not be disappointed. Brandon will also work with you on any favorites or other suggestions you may have. Then we had the Jack Daniels, vodkas, etc.................. The wait staff was outstanding as well. Very polite and gracious. Their number one priority was to ensure that our guests were taken care of. I am still getting emails and FB postings on how wonderful the food and staff were. I highly recommend Maple Street Catering.

Suzanne was a pleasure to work with and so accommodating on short notice. She answered all of our…read morequestions down to if the buffet heaters we got would work well. We ordered the Turkey Dinner which was $22 a head which was a very good price. We would be happy to work with them again in the future.

It's great we found this little spot to go when we head to NH for a bike ride!! Pulled pork was great and the homemade cornbread is awesome. Nothing fancy just home cooked food for a great price.

I enjoyed my trip to the Shak. The place is quite literally in its name. Tiny food truck/shack off…read morea dirt driveway. There's some tables and chairs set out with a house behind it. The owner was very pleasant, friendly, and accommodating. He clearly cares about his product and truly tries his best to deliver the best bbq possible. He let us sample the items we ordered, and had a lot of sauce options to choose from. The meat was tender, juicy, and flavorful. With that said, if you're used to the BBQ being pulled right off the smoker like I am, then this may not be the spot for you. What threw me off was heating it up in a pan. Again, although it had plenty of flavor, I missed that grilled char/smoke. The owner has been doing it this way for a long time, so I know it's a local favorite, just not the type of bbq I would prefer. I wasn't fond of the sides as well (cornbread, beans, mac & cheese, potato salad). They could be great for someone else - just not what I'm used to. Lastly, I wish there was a sampler platter to choose from as the overall cost was fairly high, around $70 which gave us a ton of food leftover. Overall, I'm glad I experienced it, but may look for other bbq spots next time.

The menu was incredible and the food quality was excellent. The hors d'oeuvres were tasty and plentiful. Ashleigh even served piping hot poutine as a late night snack. We received so many positive comments about the food and service from our guests. We recommend Ashleigh and the Barefoot Gourmet to anyone planning a large event. Thank you Ashleigh!

It's been over two months since my wedding, and I'm still getting comments from friends and family…read moreon how incredible Barry's food was. Even the vegan commented that the cheddar and honey stuffed filo was incredible. When I first met Barry we asked about his accent - turns out he's from South Africa, in a region called Durban. That community is known for being very diverse in culture. He also spent time in California and, obviously, now lives in VT. As soon as he learned that my mother is Indian, but grew up in East Africa, and that both our families love a variety of foods the menu started planning itself. Bhajias, cheddar and honey stuffed filo, samosas, crab cakes, chicken satays - and that's just the appetizers! Each item was meaningful and mouth watering. Dinner was done buffet style. I was a bit concerned about the speed of this and how it would go over with guests (I think everyone loves being served). In the end, people could ask for extra of what they wanted, skip what they didn't, and some managed to get up for seconds. It worked perfectly. Dinner was a wine and herb mopped roast, peri peri style shrimp and scallop kebabs, salt potatoes (simple, but really well done), butternut polenta pie (vegan) and vermont mac and cheese (I regret not getting seconds on this - but as the groom I barely finished my plate) I'd go on about which items I like... but that would be a book - every thing was just perfect, fresh and really well done. The staff was also incredible. He hires a number of high school kids, and some alumni, for weddings. At first I was concerned, but then learned the local high school has a culinary program, so these kids aren't just trying to make a buck - this is what they want to do, and it really showed. Additionally, Barry wasn't exactly kicking back - it seemed like he was every where at once - prepping the buffet serving appetizers and some how I kept hearing his booming laugh as he interacted with guests who just had to stop him to tell him how great the thing they just ate was. The price was right in the middle of what I compared, but the quality, quantity and creativity of the menu put this as possibly the best wedding meal I've been to. (If I can say so myself). A few notes: Barry does not do bar service. If you need alcohol, you'll have to find another bar tender. I went with Phat Kats and was really happy. There was some question about how water would be served - but between Ohana, Barry and Phat Kats I didn't have to worry about it and it got done. Note: This review was for my June 2016 wedding at Camp Ohana in Fairlee VT
