Food Truck Catering
Catering in Alexandria, VA
Alexandria smells like history, but on the right afternoon — smoke drifting across a park, a crowd settled in with nowhere to be — it smells like barbecue. The kind that took all day to get there: brisket with a proper bark, ribs that pull clean, pulled pork that doesn't need a single excuse. Colorado Pig Rig brings that low-and-slow tradition straight into the gatherings that make this city worth living in.

Venues & Event Locations
Lenny Harris Memorial Fields at Braddock Park fills up with families who didn't plan to spend their afternoon talking about pulled pork — until they did. The Tower 2 pool crowd brings a different kind of hunger: sun-worn, relaxed, and entirely ready for ribs with a serious smoke ring. National Defense University, with its campus rhythm and its mix of people from everywhere, turns out to be exactly the kind of place where slow-cooked craft finds an appreciative audience.
Under HB 1625 (effective July 1, 2017), Virginia has health and fire reciprocity — a food-truck health permit or fire inspection issued by any Virginia jurisdiction is accepted statewide.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the City of Alexandria.
Colorado Pig Rig and our local partners carry current health, fire, and business licensing. We're glad to share our documentation with your venue or organizer on request.

Stephen
Food Truck Booking Agent
Stephen built his BBQ instincts the hard way: more than a dozen trucks, a 12-truck network, and days prepping over 3,000 meals for corporate crowds of 1,000 or more. When a contractor's trailer hitch failed before an event, he got a team out to re-hitch it and still rolled in with 50 minutes to spare, the kind of hearty BBQ service he now helps hosts plan for their own gatherings. His rule for keeping the line moving: trim the menu to two entrées and let the smoky flavor do the rest.
Stephen will help you confirm menu direction, timing, access, and setup — and whether truck, buffet, or drop-off is the right fit for your event.
