At catering scale
Catering BBQ, honestly
BBQ catering in Los Angeles usually means one hard choice for halal guests — and that is the choice we removed. Our pit runs entirely halal · zabiha-sourced: smoked brisket with real bark, charcoal beef ribs, BBQ chicken glazed over the fire, and kofta and shawarma that cross the Mediterranean into the smoke. The trays land with the sides a pit spread deserves — mac & cheese under a toasted crumb, coleslaw and seasoned fries, cornbread-sweet touches on the dessert board — sized as half pans, full pans, and platters that scale from a backyard party to a production lot.
Smoke is slow food, which makes it exceptional event food: it holds temperature, carves in front of guests, and feeds a long afternoon without losing character. Film and TV crews book this menu on repeat, and offices use it for the kind of lunch people actually leave their desks for. Every dish is labeled — gluten-free grills, vegetarian sides — and the whole spread can be mixed with any of our other kitchens on one quote.

Word of mouth
Hosts, in their own words
“The most precise catering operation I have worked with in fifteen years of producing premieres. They run a kitchen like a film set.”
“Five dietary traditions at one table and not a single guest felt like an exception. That is not catering — that is diplomacy.”
“Our guests still talk about the food before they talk about the view — and we got married on a cliff over the Pacific.”
Questions
BBQ catering, answered honestly
What does halal BBQ catering cost in Los Angeles?
BBQ trays and platters run $40–$210 — smoked brisket and the mixed grill sit at the top of that range, sides like mac & cheese and coleslaw at the bottom. Half pans, full pans, and per-guest service are all priced on the menu above.
Is your BBQ really zabiha halal — including the brisket?
Yes. Every cut on this menu — brisket, ribs, kofta, chicken — is zabiha-sourced from suppliers we name, smoked and grilled with no alcohol in any marinade or glaze. It is the halal BBQ that LA guests are usually told doesn't exist, labeled per dish.
Does BBQ hold up for delivery, or do you grill on site?
Both. Smoked meats hold temperature exceptionally well in transit, which makes BBQ our most reliable drop-off menu; for events that want the fire visible, we run a manned grill station and carve off the pit. Film and TV crews book the drop-off format on repeat.
What should we order for a backyard party versus a production set?
Backyards do best with the mixed grill platters plus two sides per ten guests; production lots run smoother on full pans of brisket and BBQ chicken with boxed sides. Either way the pit scales by adding rounds, not by changing the menu.
