Local East Bay Legend
The go-to BBQ caterer for East Bay car clubs, swim teams, and recreation organizations since 2001.
There's something about the smell of smoky pulled pork and sizzling tri-tip that turns any outdoor gathering into a celebration. Chef Dave has been the East Bay's go-to BBQ caterer since 2001, serving car clubs like the Bay Cities Racing Association and Diablo Valley Corvette Club, swim teams at Orinda Park Pool and Sleepy Hollow, Little League celebrations, and company picnics of all sizes. Our BBQ menus are built for the outdoors — hearty, satisfying food that feeds a crowd and keeps people coming back for seconds.
We offer three distinct BBQ-style menus to match the vibe of your event. Our All-American BBQ features classic pulled pork and hot links with all the fixings. The BBQ Deluxe elevates things with grilled tri-tip and an expanded selection of premium sides. And for something different, our Hawaiian Luau brings a tropical twist with teriyaki chicken, Kahlua pork, and island-inspired sides. Every menu includes professional setup, serving equipment, and Chef Dave's personal attention to make sure your outdoor event runs smoothly from first plate to last.
