Food Truck Catering
Catering in Carthage, MO
A brisket that's been on the smoker since before sunrise doesn't apologize for taking all day — and neither does Carthage, a town with its own deep sense of place and pace. Colorado Pig Rig matches that energy: low heat, long hours, and a bark that tells you something real happened in that cook. Carthage gets barbecue done right, and Colorado Pig Rig is here to prove it at every gathering across this city.

Venues & Event Locations
Carthage Municipal Park is exactly the kind of wide-open Missouri greenspace where a tray of ribs and a cold drink feel like the whole point of a Saturday afternoon. Down on the south side of town, Bartley Memorial Park draws its own crowd — the kind of neighbors who show up early and stay late, which is precisely the audience that does justice to a proper smoke ring. When a private event rolls through Red Oak II, that extraordinary artist's village of hand-built storefronts and towering murals, the setting alone demands food worth remembering.
Missouri 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 Carthage.
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.

Thomas
Food Truck Booking Agent
Real-world truck builder and operator perspective for practical, grounded event booking.
Before a smoker ever rolls up to a Colorado Pig Rig event, Thomas has already worked through COIs, permits, health department alignment, fire suppression, and insurance minimums, drawing on real familiarity with Denver Department of Public Health & Environment requirements and Denver Fire Department standards. That instinct for standards paid off firsthand when a generator shut down mid-event; he traced it to a low-oil safety cutoff, topped it off, and had hearty BBQ service for events back on track with barely a hiccup. His rule for hosts planning smoky BBQ for hungry crowds: plan the service flow, not just the menu.
- Built 200+ custom food trucks through fabrication work
- Operator + builder perspective for practical fit
Thomas will help you confirm menu direction, timing, access, and setup — and whether truck, buffet, or drop-off is the right fit for your event.
