Santa Maria Style BBQ

We transport our custom made Santa Maria style BBQ to your wedding venue usually the day before your wedding. The next day we arrive several hours early and load the BBQ with California Red Oak, get it really hot, and begin the process of putting California halved natural Chickens on the hot oak, slowly cooking that delicious Red Oak flavor into the Chicken. We remove it, and let it finish cooking in large coolers. We then put the USDA Choice Grade (sometimes Prime Grade) seasoned Tri Tips on that grill, slowly cooking them to produce tender, moist, slices of Tri Tip. You can select Salsas or Chimichurri sauces to accompany your meats and then select some fresh, day of prepared, side dishes.

Since 1999, and we have enjoyed every party that we catered! Menus designed by our clients devoured by their guests!

Welcome! More than a cooking classes... catering, private parties, custom classes, kids classes and culinary trips!
