What’s involved
Looking for experienced food and event help for a large backyard BBQ in downtown Brooklyn on September 6. The gathering will have close to 100 guests, so this could be a good fit for one highly capable person, a helper duo, a personal chef, or a small catering team. The work will include preparing a selection of fun sides and desserts, arranging the food stations, keeping everything organized and replenished throughout the event, and helping with cleanup afterward. Food preparation will take place on September 5, either at the event location or offsite, depending on what works best for you. You must be available for both the prep day and the event on September 6. Please reply with: • Relevant cooking, catering, or large-event experience • Whether you would work independently or bring additional help • Your estimated rate for the full job • References from similar work You're also welcome to include photos, sample menus, or examples of previous events.
