BBQ Wedding Catering Done Right: From Backyard Ceremonies to Full Receptions
When it comes to planning a wedding, few things bring people together like good food, and nothing says comfort and celebration quite like BBQ (not to mention the break from the norm of baked fish and chicken).
We know your wedding day is more than just a meal; it's about creating memorable moments. So whether you're tying the knot in your backyard with close family or hosting a large reception with all the bells and whistles, our BBQ wedding catering delivers bold flavors, warm hospitality, and flexible options designed to make your special day stress-free.
Why BBQ Makes the Perfect Wedding Menu
Barbecue is more than just a food choice; it's a vibe! Casual, communal, and downright delicious, it fits perfectly with today's trend toward personalized, relaxed wedding celebrations. Rustic chic? Southern charm? Backyard boho? BBQ adds a fun and flavorful
element that everyone can enjoy.
Barbecue also appeals to a wide range of tastes and dietary needs (we’ve got gluten-sensitive options). From our signature smoked chopped pork to grilled chicken wings, mac & cheese, and unique salads, Shane's catering menu gives you the flexibility to please your guests with crowd favorites and customizable combinations.
Full-Service BBQ Catering for Wedding Receptions
Hosting a large wedding? We've got you covered with full-service BBQ catering, including setup. We bring the Shack experience straight to your venue: banquet hall, outdoor barn, park pavilion, and more.
Our BBQ pros handle the heavy lifting (this is quality meat after all) so you can focus on
celebrating. With full-service catering, you'll get:
- Professional setup
- Serving equipment
- Plates, cups, napkins, and utensils
- Coordinated delivery and timing with your event schedule
As your experienced wedding caterers, we take the stress out of managing food logistics.
Backyard Wedding Catering, Simplified
If you're planning a more intimate event, like a backyard wedding or elopement celebration, Shane's offers convenient drop-off or delivery catering. Our BBQ is packaged and ready to serve, making it a perfect choice for do-it-yourself weddings that still want high-quality, flavorful food.
Choose from boxed lunches, party platters, or build-your-own buffet packages. Our drop-off catering makes setup a breeze and cleanup even easier. It's ideal for smaller groups or couples who want to focus on the moment and not the menu.
Casual Wedding Food Ideas That Still Impress
Who says casual can't be classy? Having Shane's on the guest list means you don't have to
sacrifice style for comfort. Casual wedding food ideas that work great with our BBQ
catering:
Build-Your-Own BBQ Buffet
Let your guests customize their plates with options like chopped pork or chicken and
country sides like coleslaw, baked beans, and mac and cheese. Bread or no bread? That is
the question. We respect the no-carb game, but may have to draw the line at no BBQ
sauce. Guests can choose how they want to stack their plate. It's fun, flexible, and
encourages interaction.
Late-Night Snack Packs
As the party winds down, send guests off with a Shane's boxed lunch that includes a Big
Dad Pork Sandwich or BBQ Chicken Sandwich, chips, a cookie, and tea. We know all that
dancing has worked up an appetite. It's a thoughtful and tasty touch they'll remember (and
thank you for the next morning).
Weddings of All Sizes, All Styles
Whether your wedding is a backyard ceremony with 20 people or a grand affair with 200+
guests, Shane's Rib Shack adapts to your needs. We work closely with couples and planners
