BBQ Catering in Detroit, MI
“The Traveling Chef catered our daughters graduation party yesterday and it was nothing short of amazing. We had so many compliments on how delicious the food tasted. Bridget set up and went above and beyond to make everything perfect. Being able to spend the day with family instead of cooking/preparing/refilling made the day perfect. Highly recommend!”

Incredible, Delicious, Slow-Cooked BBQ Catering
No Gimmicks, Just Damn Good BBQ
There’s BBQ, and then there’s *BBQ*. You know the difference. One is just meat cooked over heat. The other is a labor of love—slow-smoked, deeply seasoned, and so tender it practically melts in your mouth. The kind that stops you in your tracks because it’s just that good.
That’s the BBQ we stand by.
The best barbecue can’t be rushed. It’s not something you mass-produce or keep under a heat lamp. It takes time, patience, and just the right balance of smoke and seasoning. No shortcuts. No sad, dried-out meat. Just fall-off-the-bone ribs, juicy brisket, and pulled pork that’s packed with flavor.
And of course, it’s not just about the meat. Because BBQ without mac & cheese, coleslaw, cornbread, and baked beans? That’s an incomplete meal. The sides matter—the sweet, the tangy, the creamy, the crunchy. Every bite is part of the experience.
So if you’re serious about BBQ, don’t cut corners. Take your time. Do it right. Because the best things in life—especially good barbecue—are worth the wait.
That’s what we believe in.
Good BBQ takes time. It’s not something you throw together or cut corners on. It’s a process—one that requires patience, skill, and a love for doing things right. We don’t serve dry, overcooked brisket or tough ribs. We serve BBQ that’s rich, tender, and packed with smoky goodness.
And what’s BBQ without the perfect sides? Creamy mac & cheese, sweet cornbread, tangy coleslaw, and hearty baked beans all work together to complete the experience. Because BBQ isn’t just about the meat—it’s about the whole plate.
So if you’re going to do BBQ, do it right. Take the time. Respect the craft. And never settle for anything less than the best.
What’s on the Menu?
- Pulled Pork – Juicy, smoky, and begging for a pile of slaw on top.
- Ribs – The kind of fall-off-the-bone goodness that makes you forget all about silverware.
- BBQ Chicken – Because not everything needs to be red meat (but it still needs to taste amazing).
- Vegetarian Options – Believe it or not, we do a mean BBQ jackfruit that even meat lovers respect.
A proper BBQ spread isn’t just about the meat—it’s about the whole plate. That means rich, smoky baked beans, buttery cornbread, creamy mac & cheese, crisp coleslaw, and the perfect potato salad to round it all out.
