Slow-Smoked BBQ for Every Occasion

Barbecue catering requires patience, technique, and premium ingredients. Our pit team starts every cook early in the morning. Pork shoulders and beef briskets absorb hours of low-and-slow smoke. The meat pulls apart effortlessly. Each cut carries a deep smoke ring. This flavor surpasses any store-bought platter. Each protein receives our proprietary dry rub before spending twelve hours over hardwood coals.

You can host a barbecue cookout without renting a smoker or tending a fire. Rx Catering handles the heavy lifting. You enjoy the party. Our team delivers your order hot, on time, and ready to serve to backyards, corporate campuses, and park pavilions.

Rx Catering has served BBQ at outdoor receptions, employee appreciation lunches, and neighborhood block parties. Our drivers coordinate arrival times with your event schedule. Our insulated transport equipment keeps food at safe serving temperatures throughout transit.

Corporate BBQ Catering

Rx Catering provides corporate barbecue packages designed for working professionals. Team lunches, client appreciation events, and product launches benefit from a relaxed barbecue atmosphere. We offer pre-portioned plates for structured service. We also provide self-serve buffet setups so employees can build their own plates.

Corporate clients frequently order our BBQ Pork platters alongside our Hamburger Bar for variety. Side dishes like coleslaw, baked beans, and cornbread round out the meal. Our online ordering system lets you select quantities, choose sides, and schedule delivery in minutes.

Rx Catering scales every order precisely for teams of 15 or gatherings of 200. Our coordinators confirm headcount details, dietary accommodations, and setup logistics well in advance. This process ensures a stress-free experience for every organizer.

Outdoor Events and Reunions

Barbecue and the outdoors go hand in hand. Our BBQ catering packages serve family reunions, graduation cookouts, and open-air celebrations. We provide disposable serving ware and chafing dishes. Our labeled trays let guests serve themselves efficiently.

Outdoor events present unique challenges including temperature management, insect prevention, and timing around weather. Our team has handled these scenarios across hundreds of outdoor events. We bring the equipment and expertise to keep food safe in any conditions. We can advise on best practices for venues with limited shelter.

Larger outdoor gatherings pair well with our brisket, pulled pork, and party trays like fruit platters, veggie trays, and cheese boards. These cold-side options complement the rich, smoky main course. They also provide lighter alternatives for guests who prefer them.

Wedding BBQ Catering

A growing number of couples choose barbecue for their wedding reception. A well-executed BBQ spread creates a warm, approachable atmosphere. This setting encourages conversation and celebration. Rx Catering has served barbecue at receptions in barns, vineyards, hotel ballrooms, and private estates.

Our wedding BBQ packages match your event's formality. You can choose plated brisket dinners with elegant garnish or relaxed buffet-style service. Guests help themselves to pulled pork sliders and all the fixings. We work closely with your wedding planner or venue coordinator. Our team aligns timing, presentation, and service style with your vision.

Many couples pair our smoked meats with our dessert trays for a complete reception meal. This combination creates a personal and memorable dining experience.
