Food Truck Catering
Catering in Long Branch, NJ
There was a time when Long Branch was the destination — presidents summering here, grand hotels lining the bluff, the whole Eastern Seaboard looking toward this particular stretch of Jersey Shore. That era faded, and for a while the city carried that weight quietly. But something has shifted in the living present: Long Branch is rebuilding with real intention, and the food that belongs here now is the kind built the same way — slowly, carefully, with smoke and time. That's exactly what Colorado Pig Rig brings to the table.

What We Cater in Long Branch, NJ
Humid Shore summers and long outdoor evenings create a natural appetite for food that rewards a slow pace — and nothing does that better than a proper BBQ truck with smoke rolling off the grates. Colorado Pig Rig is built for the Jersey Shore rhythm: the kind of event where people arrive early, stay late, and want something substantial and satisfying in between. Brisket and ribs and pulled pork aren't a shortcut; they're a commitment, and Long Branch crowds recognize the difference.

Venues & Event Locations
Slocum Park has the open, easy character of a place where Long Branch just shows up to be itself — and Colorado Pig Rig fits into that without effort, the smoke and the sides doing the work of drawing a crowd. Brookdale Community College hosts the kind of event where a serious meal anchors the whole afternoon, and the campus community has come to expect exactly that level of craft. At Due Process Stables Golf Course, the post-round hunger is real, and a plate of slow-smoked brisket hits differently when you've earned it.
New Jersey does not have health or fire reciprocity — each local jurisdiction issues its own food-truck permits.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with Long Branch City.
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.

Stephen
Food Truck Booking Agent
Stephen built his BBQ instincts the hard way: more than a dozen trucks, a 12-truck network, and days prepping over 3,000 meals for corporate crowds of 1,000 or more. When a contractor's trailer hitch failed before an event, he got a team out to re-hitch it and still rolled in with 50 minutes to spare, the kind of hearty BBQ service he now helps hosts plan for their own gatherings. His rule for keeping the line moving: trim the menu to two entrées and let the smoky flavor do the rest.
Stephen will help you confirm menu direction, timing, access, and setup — and whether truck, buffet, or drop-off is the right fit for your event.
