Food Truck Catering
Catering in Dearborn, MI
Before the first tent stake goes in or the first folding table gets set up, someone in Dearborn is already thinking about the food — because a gathering here isn't a gathering without something worth eating. Colorado Pig Rig answers that with low-and-slow smoked BBQ: brisket rested and sliced thick, ribs with a caramelized crust, pulled pork that spent the better part of a day over wood smoke. Dearborn brings the crowd; Colorado Pig Rig brings the fire.

Venues & Event Locations
Argyle-Williamson Park draws the kind of turnout that calls for serious food, and Colorado Pig Rig is a natural fit for the community events and field-side gatherings that fill its calendar. The campus green spaces at University of Michigan-Dearborn have their own energy — student organizations, department events, graduation weekend crowds — and smoked meat travels well into all of it. On the days when Belton-Mark Twain Park fills up with families and pickup games, a platter of ribs and a side of slaw lands exactly right.
Michigan has health reciprocity — a food-truck health permit or inspection issued by any Michigan jurisdiction is accepted statewide. Fire permits are issued locally.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the City of Dearborn.
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.
