You Celebrate, We Serve

Graduation parties and summer get-togethers have a way of getting busy fast. If you’d rather not spend the day refilling trays or answering “where’s the sauce?” our staffed buffet is the move. We bring the crew, set everything up, keep the line stocked, and make sure your guests are taken care of from start to finish. You focus on celebrating. We’ll handle the BBQ.

FUNDRAISING WITH BBQ

Throughout the year we partner with local schools, clubs, youth sports teams, and PTAs to help give back to our community. Fundraisers are easy to set up, fun to attend, and stocked with delicious BBQ for everyone to enjoy.

It’s another great day to be together

When the beer is cold and the pits are hot, people tend to gather. That’s a truth as old as time, and one that’s near and dear to our hearts. Grab a friend, a beer, and a seat, and join us in celebrating the power of fire and time in the most authentic way possible.

Fab food with such a chilled vibe. Got the kids soccer team here..sat outside. Loved the pulled pork. The kids devoured the ribs. All the meats are great. The beer variety was awesome. We'll be back.
