    Wings

    We use Pierce roasted wings. They are not breaded and they are preseasoned and precooked. We take them from the freezer to the oven in our deep dish pans. They run through the oven twice and come out perfect.No mess. No salmonella

    holding cabinet

    With a really big order like that sometimes it helps to talk to the client and send the order in 2 separate deliveries. Even if its only 10 or 15 min apart it can really relieve a lot of stress
