To provide Macon and Middle
Georgia with exceptional food and top notch hospitality.
What sets your business apart? We take pride in our ability to mass
produce for multiple functions, while also providing each client with
hands-on attention to detail that is second to none. We are 100
percent caterers 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 52 weeks a year.
Our focus is our clients, so our doors are never shut. If you need us,
we are here to help make your event the next talk of the town.
You might be surprised that: Our name, Cast Iron Catering, was
inspired from my mom, "Mama Ba," cooking with cast-iron skillets. To
this day I guarantee she has a cast-iron skillet in her kitchen with some
good ole bacon fat! Yes, bacon fat – the key to so many delicious
recipes. No doubt, those Sunday lunches prepared by Mama Ba
cooking up a storm with any and every size cast-iron skillet inspired
not only the name but also my passion for making people happy with
both food and service.
What makes you a strong leader? I am young and hungry! Cooking
came natural to me, but managing a business has been a learning
process. I am learning every day with my staff and the company. I
learn from mistakes, but I aim to make sure that mistakes are only
made once – and that is how we all grow. My staff has heard me say
at least 1,000 times, "Do it right, do it light. Do it wrong, do it long."
How do you define success? I think I may have a slightly
unconventional definition of success. Some may say that millionaires
are successful. If you love what you do, do it well, and always strive to
be better than the day before, then you are successful in my books.
