Food Truck Catering
Catering in Independence, KY
Independence sits just south of the Ohio River metro, comfortable in its own skin as a Kentucky town that hasn't traded its backyard-cookout soul for anything shinier. Families here know how to slow down, and Colorado Pig Rig knows how to feed that instinct — smoke-crusted brisket, fall-off-the-bone ribs, and pulled pork served from a truck that smells like the best possible version of a Saturday.

A food truck built around low-and-slow BBQ finds its footing quickly in a place like Independence, where the pace of life still allows for a second helping and a long conversation. The community gathers regularly — at parks, at events, at the kinds of occasions that call for something more satisfying than a drive-through. Colorado Pig Rig meets that moment with brisket and ribs that reward the crowd that showed up.

Venues & Event Locations
The crowd at UC Health Stadium on a game night is already in the mood for something worth writing home about — and Colorado Pig Rig's slow-smoked brisket gives them exactly that before the first pitch. Middleton-Mills Park, with its easy neighborhood energy and long summer evenings, is the kind of spot where a Colorado Pig Rig truck turns a Tuesday into a memory. And out at Doe Run Lake Park, where the whole point is slowing down, a plate of pulled pork at the end of a lakeside afternoon feels less like lunch and more like the whole trip.
Kentucky has health reciprocity — a food-truck health permit or inspection issued by any Kentucky jurisdiction is accepted statewide. Fire permits are issued locally.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the City of Independence.
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.

Jess
Food Truck Booking Agent
Compassionate follow-up and organized menu support backed by commissary operations experience.
Ask Jess how much BBQ to order and she'll tell you it's never just about headcount — demographic mix, vendor meals, and service style all decide how much smoky, hearty BBQ a crowd actually eats. She's tested that instinct on real numbers, supporting a 5,000-guest Southwest Airlines event and a 5-day run prepping 10 trucks across 50 events for about 7,500 guests, sending every truck out with correct menus and inventory for BBQ that feels like a real event meal. Jess also digs into insurance, safety compliance, references, and fire-risk gaps ahead of time, part of how she helps plan the right BBQ service format built for big appetites.
- Commissary inventory and kitchen ops for 10+ trucks
- Strong on follow-up, menu support, and client clarity
Jess will help you confirm menu direction, timing, access, and setup — and whether truck, buffet, or drop-off is the right fit for your event.
