About
Built on smoke.
Big Awesome BBQ started in the competition circuit and brought that same fire to Central New York's events, festivals, and backyards.
The story
Big Awesome BBQ has been smoking since 2007. What started as a competition team turned into a full-blown food truck and catering operation serving Central New York.
Every cut gets smoked low and slow on a live hickory wood-fired offset smoker. No gas. No pellets. No shortcuts. The sauces, rubs, and sides? All made from scratch, every single time.
We've served events with over 2,000 people and intimate backyard parties alike. The quality doesn't change with the headcount.
