Food Truck Catering
Catering in Essex Junction, VT
A good BBQ truck doesn't rush, and neither does Essex Junction. This mid-size Vermont city has a real community rhythm — people assembling, reconnecting, making an afternoon of it — and slow-smoked food fits that rhythm like a tailgate fits a Saturday. Colorado Pig Rig brings the brisket and the backyard warmth every time.

What We Cater in Essex Junction, VT

Whether the occasion is a school fundraiser, a company outing, or a neighborhood celebration, hearty smoked BBQ earns its place at the table.

Venues & Event Locations
When the crowds spill out of the C. Douglas Cairns Recreation Arena after a big night, they're looking for something satisfying — and a truck with real smoke credibility delivers exactly that. Myers Park offers the kind of open-air setting where BBQ feels most at home, the smell alone doing half the work of drawing people in. The Vermont National Guard Library & Museum rounds out the picture: a venue with history and meaning, made a little warmer by the presence of good food.
Vermont has health reciprocity — a food-truck health permit or inspection issued by any Vermont jurisdiction is accepted statewide. Fire permits are issued locally.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the City of Essex Junction.
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.
