The Right Pit-to-Plate Setup for Any Event

Wedding Catering

Corporate Events

Festivals & Outdoor Events

Private Gatherings

Standing receptions and seated dinners for 50–500 guests. Consistent execution across multiple service windows, no catalog catering.

Full-service pit-smoked menus for seated and buffet receptions. Our team manages every service window so the timeline holds.

High-volume outdoor service with on-site smoking rigs. Smoked fresh on location — not trailered in from the day before.

Intimate dinners and backyard events for 30–80 guests. Same in-house smoking discipline, scaled to your guest count.

• Client Proof

Trusted When Consistency Counts

We ran three service windows over six hours for 420 guests. Old Smokey held temperature and quality from the first plate to the last. That's not easy — and most caterers can't do it.

Our wedding had 280 guests and every single person commented on the brisket. Setup was done before we arrived. Breakdown before the last dance. Zero stress on our end.
