ELEVATED CATERING EXPERIENCE

Custom Catering by Boss Moss Kitchen

The Boss Moss Experience: Beyond the Smoker

While our Signature BBQ Trays are perfect for casual gatherings, we know that some milestones require a more tailored touch. Our Custom Catering Division is dedicated to creating one-of-a-kind culinary experiences, from elevated Texas-style cocktail hours to bespoke multi-course menus.

When you choose a custom menu, you aren't just buying food — you are commissioning a dedicated kitchen team to source, prep, and hand-craft a menu unique to your vision.

How It Works: Our Bespoke Process

1

Review Our Standards

Before scheduling a consultation, please review our custom tiers below. Custom menus require a higher level of labor and specialized sourcing than our standard BBQ packages.

Custom Menu Minimum
$65.00 / person

Standard BBQ Trays: For events with a budget under $65/person, we highly recommend our Signature BBQ Party Packs — the best value-to-fullness ratio in San Diego.

Lock In Your Date

To protect our kitchen's workflow and ensure the highest quality, we require a 50% non-refundable deposit to secure any custom event date.

Our Custom Specialty: The Pitmaster's Small Bites

Appetizers at Boss Moss are not "finger food" — they are handcrafted works of art. Because of the intense labor required for plating and garnishing, we offer our custom appetizers in curated bundles.

The Pitmaster's Trio

Select 3 handcrafted appetizers from our Seasonal List.

The Smokehouse Social

A full cocktail-hour experience featuring 5 premium selections.

Note: Our kitchen maintains a strict "Seasonal 5" appetizer list to ensure peak freshness and execution. Requests for items outside this list are considered Premium Customizations and will incur an additional $10.00/person surcharge.

Why the "Custom Menu Design Fee"?

At Boss Moss Kitchen, we take pride in our Intellectual Property. The Design Fee covers the hours our Chefs spend researching ingredients, coordinating with local suppliers, and testing recipes specifically for your event. We believe great food starts with a great plan.
