Have you ever ordered cookies from a small bakery half way across the world? Have you ever driven an hour and a half to get your favorite chinese food?

Thin Mint's Coca Cola Ham is destined for the top of Mt. Guiltmore
Crafting menus is one of the best parts of custom-to-the-client catering. Each menu is different. You listen, you research and you create. It's a very exhausting and rewarding process. Last evening, Thin Mint put together a terrific action station for a Wedding at the Olde Homstead Golf Club She put together a sensational selection of Guiltorious comfort that has greatness written all over it.
Her client now has a Biscuit Bar with Southern Biscuits, Sweet Potato Biscuits and Jalapeno Chive Biscuits.OMG! They sound awesome, but the real showstopper are the two toppings that Thin Mint added. Our Executive Chef went back into our culinary vault and chose two eternal classics. Thin Mint's client will have Chef Bruce's famous Chicago Bears sausage gravy. We have had many chef's over the years prepare this slice of the South and very few do it justice. We're not sure why, but it's a good test of their cooking skills. No one even comes close to matching Bruce's heavenly creation. It's incredible.
However, my beautiful bride climbed Guilty Peak with her Coca Cola glazed spiral ham. This slow-smoked Country Ham was worthy of being on Mt. Guiltmore. The salty flavor combined with the soda's sweetness is the ideal accompaniment to the flaky biscuits. Thin Mint's Guiltness Greatness is always appreciated.
