"Is Any of the
Food Halal?"
We Gave a Clear Answer.

Total Construction booked our American BBQ truck for a 55 guest corporate lunch in North Strathfield. Halal mattered for some of their team, so they asked a simple question. We gave a clear breakdown before the booking, so every person could choose with confidence. Today our menu is all halal, which makes it simpler still.

Key Takeaways

  • Total Construction booked one American BBQ truck for a 55 guest corporate lunch in North Strathfield, with unlimited serves.
  • Their team is diverse, and halal mattered for some guests, so they asked exactly what was halal.
  • We gave a clear breakdown before the booking, rather than a vague answer, so everyone could choose with confidence.
  • Today our menu is all halal. The one item that would use pork bacon is made with beef bacon instead. We are not halal certified.

The Client

Total Construction wanted to put on a generous lunch for their North Strathfield team, with plenty of choice and no one left out. We brought our American BBQ truck with an unlimited serve package for 55 guests.

The Question

Construction crews are wonderfully diverse, and for a lot of people halal is not a nice to have, it is a must. So the office manager asked us a simple, important question. Is any of the food halal?

It is a fair thing to want a straight answer on, and the wrong answer, or a vague one, means people quietly go without.

What We Did

We answered properly. Rather than a vague "most of it", we sent through a clear breakdown of exactly which items were halal and which were not, before anything was locked in. No grey area, no guesswork. From there the team could build a menu that worked for everyone, and we served an unlimited spread so people could go back for more.

Being upfront and specific about halal is a small thing that means a great deal to the people it affects, and it is exactly how we like to work.

Halal Catering Today

Since then we have made it simpler again. Our menu is now all halal, so a diverse team can order anything on it. The one item that would normally use pork bacon is made with beef bacon instead. To be clear and honest, we are not halal certified, so if formal certification is a strict requirement for your event, just tell us and we will be upfront about what we can and cannot promise.
