About

We cook it the long way, and it shows

Every brisket and every rack of St. Louis ribs spends the night in the smoker. We trim and rub the meat ourselves, keep the fire on hickory and oak, and let it go until the bark sets and the meat pulls apart with a fork.

Then we pack it hot, load the truck and drive it to you. Catering is the whole job for us, so the food that reaches your table is the same food we would put in front of our own family.

Events from 25 to 500 guests, in Kansas City and the surrounding towns
Everything smoked over hickory and oak, never in an oven
The three-meat package starts at $24 per person, priced per guest

Three ways to put barbecue in front of your guests

Every package is priced per person, and it all comes off the same smoker. Pick the one that fits how much you want to do on the day.

Drop-off buffet

We deliver the hot pans, set up the buffet and leave the serving gear behind. Good for graduation parties and office lunches where you have a table and a couple of helpers.

Full-service events

Our crew brings the buffet line, keeps it filled, serves the meat and clears the tables afterwards. Best for weddings and company events where you would rather stay with your guests.

Smoker trailer on site

We park the offset smoker at your venue and cook through the afternoon. Guests can watch the fire, and the ribs come off the rack minutes before they hit the table.

The three-meat package starts at $24 per person. Pick three from the smoker and we build the rest of the line around them. Tell us your date and guest count and we will send a per-person quote.

The smoker trailer comes to you

If you want the whole thing in front of your guests, we haul the trailer out, set it up on your grass or your lot and cook there all afternoon. It works well for weddings, company picnics and tailgates where the food is part of the day.

You get the same menu, cooked on site by our crew, with the fire going the whole time.
