What are you asking for???
January 6, 2012 By
We get all kinds of new people ask about how our catering service works. Its great because they come in not knowing what to expect. Burgers, Fried Chicken, Dumplings, Vegetarian and Gluten free foods. Then they look at our menu and there off into deep thought! We serve Oregon BBQ. Favorites of our customers. Nothing fried, nothing greasy and nothing boring and without flavor! Most of the time we cook what you order and don't even use the menu! Isn't that funny? :) But keep on asking! We do it all. Not just BBQ, we are going to do a lot more than just BBQ! We are "Service experts" first. We serve large crowds, well. Thanks for coming in! … [Read more...]
A sweet end to 2011

There it is, 2011. Dust in the wind. We feel like Bon Jovi as in "We've seen a million faces, and we rocked them all!" 2011 was the year the economy came back.. A little. Bacon and Chocolate came to Ribslayer Fans. More people had weddings than ever and they were all so fun and memorable. Thank you to all our brides and grooms in 2011. Your days will be remembered as wonderful videos in our minds! We learned a lot from our mistakes and learned that being open and honest with our selves and our clients really helps to make catering events run smoothly and makes them memorable. Some of our bigger clients became closer to us. OMI, Cascade … [Read more...]
Happy Holidays from Chef Craig

Never has the season felt so much like it should. Visiting my mother for Thanksgiving and making the family a big batch of fresh Minestrone was so much fun. Taking a week off to recharge and visit old friends was great! I came home and made it for Theresa and she loved it too! The wheather outside is chilly and we just got done making bags of goodies for stocking stuffers or gift exchanges. We have Cheddar Chipotle Crackers, Bacon Topped Chocolate Wafers, Dipped Almond or Peanut Brittle, Dipped Pretzels, Dipped Cherries and more! Ask about a party platter to pick up and bring to your next outing. Tell them you got it at Ribslayer! You will … [Read more...]
