What We Cater in Artesia, NM
What makes Colorado Pig Rig work so well in a community like Artesia is the shared sensibility: both understand that the best things take time. This is a city shaped by agriculture and industry and the quiet pride that comes from doing real work, and a BBQ truck that smokes its meat the honest way earns its place at the table. From a small family cookout to a large company event, the rig scales to fit the crowd without ever cutting corners on the smoke.

Venues & Event Locations
Down at Guadalupe Park, where Artesia families spread blankets and kids run the grass on long summer evenings, a Colorado Pig Rig setup turns a casual outing into a full-on backyard feast without anyone having to fire up a grill at home. Over near the Heritage Walkway, where the town's story gets told in brick and bronze, the smell of slow-smoked brisket drifting through the downtown air feels like exactly the right kind of addition to a community gathering. Guests staying at Hotel Artesia — whether they're in town for business in the Permian Basin or just passing through on a Southwest road trip — have discovered that the best meal of their stay sometimes comes off a truck parked closer than they expected.
New Mexico does not have health or fire reciprocity — each local jurisdiction issues its own food-truck permits.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the City of Artesia.
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.
