Basically, the Colts' philosophy is low-fat, but it also has to be tasty. The worst thing is for a player to go away hungry. They don't want players to leave and call Domino's for a pizza, or to sneak away to a McDonald's and load up on hamburgers and fries. They don't want them to gripe about the food, because then they lose focus on why they are here. |
No matter how we make chicken, we still have to have barbecue sauce out there for it. The players love barbecue sauce. |
There are quite a few Muslims on the team. If we have pork, there's always two other items to choose from. If we have a barbecued pork sandwich on the menu, we're also offering a fish and a chicken item. |
We have fried catfish, country fried steak and cinnamon-roasted pork. We have collard greens, black-eyed peas, hush puppies, biscuits, sweet potato pie and lots of gravy. Most players love it, but we also have a baked catfish for players who are still looking to stay on the approved diet. |
We have to be ready for everything. We have to make it come off smoothly, too. There's no room for error. |
