Picnic Catering

Our most notable meals come from our BBQ and picnic catering menus. Corky's Chicago picnic catering makes it easy to enjoy yourself and save money too. No one wants to spend a day behind a barbeque, so let our service staff take care of the work while you enjoy the day. Worried about prices, we price our picnic menus to compete with any grocery stores, discount supermarkets and caterers. Some of our best picnic lunch catering menus include items such as Corky's Famous BBQ Fried Chicken, Corky’s whole pig roast, Johnsonville Bratwurst cooked in beer and onions then grilled to perfection, and BBQ rib tips slathered in our own special BBQ sauce. Looking to feed a big group and don't have the budget, try one of our pennywise picnic catering menus, these menus come with everything you'll need and are the most cost effective way to go at five dollars a person. Looking for some more options, our Pick-A-Picnic menu gives you hundreds of combinations to choose from. For the true picnic catering experience, try Corky's Pig Roast Catering. This menu includes a delicious whole roasted pig plus your choice of 2 entrees and 3 sides. Picnic catering can be a tough job, so leave the job to the pros and enjoy yourself for the day!
