BBQ catering · Townsend, DE · New Castle County

We bring the pit
to Townsend

Townsend is the far southern end of what we cover — about forty-five minutes down Route 1 from Wilmington — so we ask for a little more notice here than we do up north. Drop-off, buffets, full service, the food truck, or rent one of our two restaurants. Per-guest packages from 16.99, 10-guest minimum; same-day for smaller orders, a day's notice for larger ones.
