Roasted Red Wine Brisket Catering - Frato's Chicago

This isn’t ordinary brisket. Our red wine brisket is marinated in real red wine, then slow-roasted for over a full day until the meat is impossibly tender and rich with deep, complex flavor. It’s the kind of centerpiece that makes guests stop mid-conversation and ask, “Where did you get this?”

A trained Frato’s chef delivers everything hot, sets up your spread, and ensures your event runs flawlessly.

Over 24 Hours of Preparation

From the moment we begin marinating to the final slice, this brisket takes over a full day to prepare. Real red wine in the marinade. Low and slow roasting until the meat practically falls apart. No shortcuts. No rushing. Just time, technique, and premium ingredients.

Why Our Brisket Is Different

Most caterers buy pre-cooked brisket and reheat it. We start from scratch with premium cuts, marinate in real red wine, and invest over 24 hours of active preparation. The result is meat so tender and flavorful that it becomes the talking point of your event. This is premium BBQ for the connoisseur — not mass-produced catering food with a BBQ label.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the brisket take over 24 hours to prepare?

Premium brisket requires time. We marinate the meat in real red wine with herbs and aromatics, then slow-roast it at low temperature until it’s impossibly tender. Rushing this process would compromise the flavor and texture that makes our brisket special.

Is this actual red wine in the marinade?

Yes. We use real red wine in our marinade — not “wine flavoring” or artificial alternatives. The wine tenderizes the meat and infuses it with rich, complex flavor during the cooking process.

What’s the minimum order for brisket catering?

Due to the preparation time and premium nature of this item, we recommend brisket for groups of 20+ guests. Contact us for a custom quote based on your event size.

How far in advance should I order?

We recommend booking at least 1 week in advance for brisket orders. The 24+ hour preparation time means we need to plan ahead to ensure your brisket is perfect. For large events or during busy seasons (holidays, graduation), 2 weeks notice is ideal.

What areas do you serve?

We’re based in Schaumburg and serve the entire Chicagoland area including Arlington Heights, Hoffman Estates, Elk Grove Village, Barrington, Palatine, Naperville, Downers Grove, Elmhurst, Des Plaines, and beyond.

What sides pair best with brisket?

Our aged cheddar mac & cheese is the most popular upgrade — the rich, creamy cheese pairs perfectly with the savory brisket. Turano mini dinner rolls, roasted potatoes, and roasted vegetables also complement the meal beautifully.

What’s your On-Time Guarantee?

If we arrive more than 15 minutes past your scheduled delivery time, you don’t pay. Not a discount — completely free. We’re the only suburban Chicago caterer offering this guarantee. Read the full guarantee here →
