Add and stir to mix thoroughly:

Add the following ingredients and simmer for about 45 minutes to an hour:
- 2 (two) 14.5 oz. cans of chicken broth
- 1 (one) 14.5 oz. can of sliced, stewed tomatoes

Rising to the Occasion: 5 Special Occasions Made Better with HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville Catering

Ah, the mark of summer is winding down quickly... especially with that last barbecue, a final barefoot walk on the beach or that warm, concluding outdoor stargaze of the year. 


While end-of-season gatherings are very common, you shouldn't have to spend all your time in the kitchen preparing for them. 

That's why having fully prepared meals available for your guests (without putting in all the work) is ideal... especially if you want to spend more time celebrating with friends and family. 

Here are 5 special occasions where ordering catered meals from HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville is best for kicking off  the fall season:

1. Labor Day (September 1st)
Traditionally, Labor Day is known as the official end-of-summer holiday. Everyone wants to serve something special for their friends and family to enjoy, but may not have the time to cook in time for the fall festivities to begin. No worries, picking up delicious, locally prepared meals is your answer and the HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville crew will provide you with everything you need for this celebration!

2. Eat an Extra Dessert Day (September 4th)

Celebrate this National Grandparents Day by either inviting your wise elders for lunch or dinner at HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville or better yet-- call in an order from our catering menu and enjoy it at home, where everyone can be around to celebrate with you!

4. Oktoberfest (September 21st):

Just call us or visit our website to have your catering needs met (as well as delivered) while focusing on the true meaning of this German event with friends and family!

5. Boss’s Day (October 16th):
National Boss's Day offers employees the fabulous opportunity to acknowledge those who uphold supervisory position at our place of work. Sure, some common ways to show our gratitude are: 
- giving him/her a card signed by the entire office staff,
- organizing a group lunch affair at a restaurant in the boss’s honor (although this can be a bit expensive)
- sending flowers or a gift certificate to the 'Head Honcho' of your organization.

The easiest way, however, to show your boss how much you care is by ordering up a big ol' catered lunch from HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville that the whole workforce can enjoy on the premises.

Thinking Outside the Lunchbox: HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville 's Top 4 Kid-Friendly Options

Are we there yet? Yes, we are... at HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville , that is!

Summertime is almost over, which means our children are once again who headed back to school in the next couple of weeks (or may have just resumed classes this week).

As parents we know the most important reason for getting back in the classroom isn't always about our kids improving their memorization skills or bringing home exceptional grades we can brag to our neighbors about (although those are both wonderful)... It's also about our young ones learning a lesson or two from their elders so they can become much wiser and more disciplined as adults, right? 

Here's some inspiration for all you moms & dads out there from a couple of history's greatest thinkers:

“The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows.” --Sydney J. Harris

“Wisdom is not a product of schooling, but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.” --Albert Einstein

For the kiddos on the other hand, going back to school (for the most part) means new clothes, shoes, supplies, newer friends and maybe even a new menu from the school cafeteria (yikes!). 

So in light of all things education, our HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville crew would like to showcase some of our yummy, kid-friendly lunch options available. 

Check out our 4 most popular kids' sandwiches:

1. Turkey & Cheese Finger Food Sandwich
(Cut up into small pieces for little hands)
Made from smoked turkey breast, American cheese, lettuce, tomato and our famous Savory Mayo or Honey Mustard. Served on your child's choice of bread, such as white or wheat. Can be toasted if desired. Includes a zesty bag of chips, a crisp pickle spear and a kid-sized drink.

2. Ham & Cheese Finger Food Sandwich 
(also cut into small pieces for little hands)
Prepared using our own freshly glazed cuts of HoneyBaked Ham along with Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato and a smudge of our Savory Mayo or Honey Mustard. Can also be made with your kid's favorite type of bread and served toasted. Also accompanied by a perfectly portioned bag of chips, a crunchy pickle spear and a kid-sized drink.

3. PB & J Sandwich
Just like Grandma makes it... Two slices of soft sourdough (or any other pick from our bread variety) slathered with a smooth & creamy peanut butter and a good glob o' grape jelly. This classic can is even more enjoyable when toasted to perfection. Also bundled with a charming bag of chips, a petite lil' pickle spear and a kid-sized drink.

4. Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Parents love this classic just as much as their kids do: Generous slices of cheddar cheese stacked between your favorite bread and toasted to a beautiful golden brown. Just like our other children's menu options, this grilled delight is served fresh with a bag of chips to chomp on, a pickle spear to savor at the end and a kid-sized drink to wash down all the goodness.


Everyone knows how wonderful and fulfilling a HoneyBaked Ham can be during the holidays... but it can also be enjoyed during the school year, especially by our kids.

Stop in at HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville with those young scholars of yours TODAY to enjoy a good ol' "sammich" and maybe a dessert too (if they behave). 

Our freshness is guaranteed, but those headaches caused by screaming children in the background may NOT be!
