Food Truck Catering
Catering in Jackson, MI
On a cold Michigan morning in Jackson, the smell of oak smoke doing its slow work is almost reason enough to stand still. Colorado Pig Rig leans into that patience — brisket developing its bark over hours, pulled pork giving way in soft, smoky layers, ribs holding just long enough before they let go. In a city that knows how to endure a season, barbecue this deliberate feels right at home.

Venues & Event Locations
Workers Memorial Park draws the kind of crowd that shows up early and stays — the sort of gathering where a Colorado Pig Rig setup beside the pavilion makes the whole afternoon cohere around the pit. Down at Vandercook Lake County Park, the open grounds and waterside air call for something substantial, and slow-smoked brisket sliced thick meets that call without apology. When the season is right and the fairways are quiet, Hickory Hills Golf Club offers a backdrop where pulled pork sandwiches and a cold drink feel like exactly the reward a round deserves — and the Country Club of Jackson brings that same expectation of a good meal to a more formal setting that Colorado Pig Rig rises to meet.

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.
