Plan on 200-250g of smoked meat per adult, which is 4 to 5kg for 20 guests, plus roughly one Large side for every 2 people. Mandai Smoke Co. delivers platters on Saturdays and Sundays, islandwide, with a S$100 minimum order. The Hunter’s Platter (4–6 pax) starts at S$128.
How Much Food Do You Need?
Allow 200-250g of meat per adult who eats a regular amount. Allow 250-300g for larger eaters, and about half for children under 12. Housewarming guests arrive in waves, so round up slightly rather than down.
- 10 adults: 2 to 2.5kg of meat and about 5 Large sides
- 20 adults: 4 to 5kg of meat and about 10 Large sides
- 30 adults: 6 to 7.5kg of meat and about 15 Large sides
What Should You Order?
Start with a platter, then add single cuts to reach your weight. Our platters are the Hunter’s Platter (4–6 pax) at S$128, the Safari Platter (3–4 pax) at S$165, and the Chieftain’s Platter (6–8 pax) at S$185. Two Chieftain’s Platters cover 12 to 16 pax, so a party of 20 to 30 usually adds a few cuts on top.
The single cuts are:
- Smoked Dino Rib (600-800g), S$80: our one rib, and it is beef. It is the piece to put on a board for photos.
- Smoked Pulled Pork 500g, S$45: needs no carving, so guests can help themselves.
- Smoked Pork Belly 500g, S$45: slices cleanly and goes quickly.
- Smoked Boneless Beef Short Plate 500g, S$70: the richer beef option.
- Smoked Beef Rillette 150g, S$23 and Smoked Pork Rillette 150g, S$18: small starters for the early arrivals.
For sides, we have Wicked Slaw (S$6), Ember Corn (S$7), Rustic Mash (S$9) and Golden Rice (S$9). The slaw cuts through the smoked meat, and the rice and mash give you something neutral for children and older relatives.
We do not sell vegetarian mains, so arrange something separate for vegetarian guests.
How Do You Serve It Across the Afternoon?
Warm the food in two or three batches as guests arrive, rather than all at once. Our meats are fully cooked. You're warming them, not cooking them.
Microwave, the quick option: Use a microwave-safe dish with a damp paper towel over the meat. Heat on medium power in 1-minute intervals, rearranging between rounds, until warmed through. This suits small top-ups through the afternoon.
Oven, for larger portions: Set it to 180C and cover the meat loosely with foil. Heat for 8 to 12 minutes and pull it when the centre reaches 65C. Rest it for 2 minutes before serving.
Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours and eat them within 2 to 3 days. Freeze anything you want to keep longer.
How Does Delivery Work?
We deliver on Saturdays and Sundays only, islandwide, in 2-hour windows between 10.30am and 8.30pm. Orders close at 6.30pm the day before, so Friday 6.30pm closes Saturday and Saturday 6.30pm closes Sunday.
Delivery costs S$8 under S$150 and is free above S$150. Sentosa and restricted locations cost extra and do not get free delivery. A failed delivery costs S$15 for a second attempt.
We are a home-based smokehouse in Mandai. Buy sturdy disposable plates and napkins yourself.
