Our Story

“Anybody can make you enjoy the first bite of a dish, but only a real chef can make you enjoy the last.”

– Francois Minot

Culinary artist Steven Marshall takes those words to heart. He has been a personal chef with his own catering company since 2000.

Formerly known as Sterling Cuisine, Steven found himself wanting to break away from the conventional, staid feel of traditional catering. Steven Marshall Productions was born in 2013 as a reinvention of all he loves best about cooking.

He and his wife Valerie are the driving force behind SMP Catering, planning and executing amazing events from intimate dinner parties to movie premieres, catering everything from on-location production shoots to extravagant wedding receptions.

SMP Catering’s style is an eclectic Californian cuisine with Mediterranean, Asian and Texan influences allowing our unique ingredient combinations to be full flavored yet distinct. Our focus is on starting off with flavorful, fresh ingredients with attention to detail; whether it’s the hours of caring for the meats at our smoker, or the respectful 2 day multi-step process in prepping pork belly.
