Food Truck Catering
Catering in Lyons, IL
Step past the expressway interchange and Lyons opens into something that feels genuinely its own: a working Illinois community with a strong sense of place and a real appetite for good food. That appetite calls for smoked BBQ done right — the kind where the pit does its work overnight, the smoke ring goes deep, and the result speaks for itself at any gathering this city puts together.

Venues & Event Locations
The footprint across Lyons covers the full range of where people actually gather. Memorial Park Amphitheater draws crowds for warm-weather events, and smoked brisket served tableside turns a concert night into a full occasion. Over at Imperial Oak Brewing, the combination of craft beer and proper pulled pork is the kind of pairing that earns a repeat visit. When the community convenes at O'Reilly Park — youth leagues, neighborhood celebrations, the easy Saturday energy of a well-used public green — Colorado Pig Rig fits right into that backyard-cookout warmth.
Illinois 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 the Village of Lyons.
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.

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.
