Arizona is not only saguaro and heat. Around Prescott the country climbs into ponderosa pine and granite, and the private jet menu follows it: prickly pear, mesquite, tepary beans, chiles and Sonoran-style wheat. A private jet menu for this field is built around what the Arizona pantry actually offers, and that is where the local specialities start.
We plan the inflight menu around dishes that survive a climb from a 5,045-foot field: grilled meats with sauce apart, cold tortilla-based plates, citrus and prickly pear desserts. Private jet food from this region travels well because it is built on grill, char and bright acid. Private jet platters for the cabin, gourmet inflight meals for lunch legs and private jet snacks for the road, all drawn from Arizona, make the local specialities easy to serve with one oven and a drawer.
Prescott and the wider state give us green chile, mesquite-smoked cuts, pinto beans, Navajo-style flatbreads and desert honey. Each dish is described the way it leaves the kitchen and arrives in your galley: hot, cold, sauce on the side, or to re-plate. Ask for a private jet menu that tells you in advance how every plate finishes.
