CATERING
WE ARE MORE THAN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP WINNING BBQ
From a highly decorated competition team to the opening of the first restaurant in 2016, RBL always knew that we could do more. The catering and food truck elements of this well-oiled machine really got going in 2019 as a small department ran out of the same kitchen that our first restaurant was. By 2022, it blossomed into what you see today. With a state of the art 4000 sq ft. commissary, RBL Catering and Trucking has the unique ability to create menus and dishes that are specifically tailored to each of our clients. Our World Championship winning BBQ will always be our bread and butter, but we hope this catering team proves to you that we can do MORE.
