Food Truck Catering

Catering in Cedar Lake, IN

The best things in Cedar Lake don't rush — the lake doesn't, the seasons don't, and neither does real barbecue. Colorado Pig Rig operates on that same low-and-slow philosophy: brisket that earns its bark, ribs that yield when they're ready, pulled pork that spent hours becoming something worth talking about. This is the kind of food that fits a town comfortable enough in itself to let time do the work.

What We Cater in Cedar Lake, IN

The rhythm of Cedar Lake — cold winters that build appetite, summers that invite lingering — makes it exactly the kind of place where slow-smoked barbecue doesn't need to explain itself. Residents here aren't looking for a shortcut to flavor; they're looking for brisket that held the smoke correctly, for pulled pork that was never rushed. Colorado Pig Rig is built for that expectation.

At Timber Lane Park, neighborhood events take on a particular ease — the kind of afternoon where good food stops being an afterthought and becomes the reason people stay longer than they planned, with Colorado Pig Rig's smoke drifting across the grass doing most of the persuading. Edgewood Estates Park offers that same quiet community energy, a green space where a well-placed food truck turns a casual gathering into something genuinely memorable. And at Bartlett Park, where Cedar Lake residents come together across seasons, the arrival of slow-smoked ribs and properly rested brisket has a way of drawing people from the far edge of the field.

Under HB 1577 (effective January 1, 2027), Indiana has health reciprocity — a food-truck health permit or inspection issued by any Indiana jurisdiction is accepted statewide. Fire permits are issued locally.

In Cedar Lake, health is licensed by Lake County Health Department and fire permitting is set locally by Cedar Lake's fire authority.

If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the Town of Cedar Lake.

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.

Food Truck Booking Agent

Energetic coordination and strong vendor communication from someone who has worked across 13 trucks.

Big BBQ events live or die on service speed, permitting, parking, COIs, and timing, and John built his eye for matching the right concept to the right crowd across Los Angeles, Denver, Miami, and Ontario, CA. He once talked a stranded driver through a highway breakdown — a blown radiator hose on the way to an Ontario event — arranging a replacement truck so the trailer still rolled in on time, a save that brought the client back the following year. His take on planning a smoky BBQ service that feeds a real crowd: guest count, service speed, setup style, and budget matter just as much as the menu.

  • Worked across 13 different food trucks since 2020
  • Responsive vendor communication and coordination focus

John will help you confirm menu direction, timing, access, and setup — and whether truck, buffet, or drop-off is the right fit for your event.
