Food Truck Catering
Catering in Elkhart, IN
Smoke rises slowly in Elkhart — not from a backyard grill, but from a Colorado Pig Rig truck parked right where the city gathers. This is a place that takes its cookouts seriously: brisket with a proper bark, ribs that concede without a fight, pulled pork that rewards patience the way only low-and-slow craft can. Whether the occasion is a campus event, a weekend festival, or a private celebration, the food should be worth arriving early for.

Venues & Event Locations
Indiana University South Bend - Elkhart draws students, faculty, and the broader community together throughout the academic year, and a Colorado Pig Rig setup turns any campus event into the kind of afternoon people actually remember. Out at Boot Lake Nature Preserve, where the setting already does half the storytelling, smoked brisket and cold-weather comfort food feel like a natural extension of the landscape. For more formal occasions, venues like Elcona Country Club set a standard that Colorado Pig Rig's polished service and craft-forward menu are more than happy to meet.
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.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the City of Elkhart.
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.

John
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.
