A Word from Our Clients
October 2024
Everything was amazing! From placing the order at Big Pig to the delivery man coming to deliver and set up the food, everything went so smoothly. It was a pleasure doing business with them. The food was outstanding. We had sirloin tips, grilled chicken, mac and cheese, spare ribs, cornbread and salad. Everyone was raving about the food and asking where it came from. I would not hesitate to use Big Pig Barbecue in the future. I actually used them myself for an outdoor pig roast and that was also amazing. Glad I remembered them for our luncheon.

Big Pig was so great to deal with ordering and customizing our order. We had our order delivered and set up. The set up was great, everything was in a warming tray. The food was delicious and got rave reviews from all of the party goers. The ribs were a huge hit, but my favorite was the steak tips.

Can't say enough! Arrived on-time, set-up was ready on-time, clean-up was great, the staff were personal and very accommodating! This was for a 200+ employee, company BBQ. Staff raved about the food! This was the easiest catered event to schedule and manage with Big Pig BBQ. One or two phone calls and all was set!

Holy smokes, this place is DELICIOUS. I repeat, quite scrumptious! This place was catering at the end of the Reach the Beach Ragnar race and their chicken and pork WERE incredibly tender. I could taste every bit of flavor infused with every bite. The mac n cheese were nice and cheesy. The cornbread was fresh and had good texture. Holy moly, it was such a pleasant surprise to eat this at the beach~

We recently used Big Pig Barbecue for our son's and daughter n law's family "I Do " barbecue. The food was amazing ! I was concerned about having the tips, ribs and pulled chicken plus sides delivered thinking they would be over cooked by the time they were set up and served. The food was perfect. Our family was raving how tender the tips were and how savory the ribs and chicken was. The delivery person was polite, engaging and sincerely interested our occasion. Outstanding would reccomend for any gathering.

All I can say is wow! So we had their pulled pork and sausage, onions and peppers, corn bread, and all of the accoutrements! Everything was fresh and delicious. The pork came in big chunks and could see how beautiful the meat was, and the sausage onions and peppers was just so delicious and really fed a multitude of people! I was catering a party for a football team in New Hampshire and everybody was thrilled! The staff at Big Pig was very helpful because I was nervous amount about the amount considering it was a football team and boy did they take care of me. Everybody got a nice big filling and we had some leftovers and highly highly recommend for big or small parties and Chris and the staff at Big Pig will take care of you!

I cannot say enough positive things about our experience! The crew showed up early, were super friendly and professional, and cleaned everything up meticulously (much to my dog’s dismay).
I live in NC now and came up for the week to host this party as a surprise for my parents’ 50th anniversary. One thing people ALWAYS remember about parties is the food, so I’m glad we chose Big Pig. Everyone loved it. I got compliments literally from everyone. The food was still fantastic the next day as leftovers (the mac stayed creamy, it didn’t “break” when heated up).
I’ll recommend y’all to everyone!

Good evening,
I just wanted to say we had a catered event in Peabody today. Not only was the food and set up amazing, the two men who came and grilled for us were beyond amazing. They were so kind and helpful, both were beyond respectful and just made the event that much better. While I’m sure I’m not telling you anything you don’t know, those men are A+ employees and I thank you for such a memorable party!

They were amazing. The food was great, the staff came early to set up their grills. They helped us set up our tents and other items needed for our party. Had extra ice, were super careful with everything. Highly recommend the ribs, steak tips and mac and cheese. Only thing better than the food was the service. Having them come, cook and serve on site was a real treat.

Thank you so much for a fantastic party! The staff were wonderful! The food was incredible! Everyone kept asking where Big Pig was located and I know at least 2 people took cards with your info on it. I am so thankful you were able to help us on short notice and I'm so very, very glad it was you I contacted!
Everything was perfect! And even the food that was left over was taken off by guests - they've never taken leftovers from my home.... I will be happy to continue to recommend your services to anyone who asks!!

We just used The Big Pig to cater our 30th anniversary of our neighborhood association. The food was phenomenal! Chicken, steak tips,, burgers, hotdogs, salad, beans and cornbread. All our residents raved about the food. I experienced their food a year ago at my work, and I knew just the place to cater our event. Give them a try. You won’t be disappointed!

I had an amazing 50th birthday party that Big Pig catered. The food was so fresh and delicious. We had steak tips, chicken, burgers, hot dogs, corn bread, and mac and cheese. Our guests went back in line for more. They are still talking about the steak tips. The team arrived early, set up beautifully (smelled so good.) They served our guests and helped us bring the leftovers in the house. We were excited about the menu but never could have imagined how juicy and delicious everything would be. We will be using Big Pig again. Great job! 10 stars.

Amazing from start to finish! Had Big Pig cater my daughter’s graduation party and it could not have been better. Food was delicious and the guys they sent were great. So helpful and nice. They supply all paper goods as well as take home boxes which came in handy. They arrived early to set up and cleaned up everything before they left. I highly recommend Big Pig and will be using them again soon

Big Pig was delicious! They were super helpful when placing order and didn’t have me over order, which I greatly appreciated! We had a large catering order for a party of 40 and everyone truly enjoyed!! It was fresh, the meat was juicy &tender and the side dishes were right on point! The sauces on the side were a hit too! If you like a little heat be sure to try the primo sauce. Thanks Big Pig for a great experience! I highly recommend! Best BBQ around!

Big Pig BBQ catered a graduation party for 80 for us this week, grilling the food fresh on site, and was a HUGE hit! The planning was easy, the food choices were great, and the day of the event they were very professional and on time. The burgers, hot dogs, chicken and *steak tips* along with the delicious salad and mac and cheese, all the sauces, fresh buns... it was all fantastic. Many people wrote down the name for future reference and even the most serious Grillers in attendance had high praise. We lucked out getting Big Pig for our party, and highly recommend them. Hope we have an opportunity for them to cater for us again!

Thank you for helping us have a wonderful event. John & Kyle, your staff, were just wonderful, they knew what they needed to do and got it done in a timely manner. The food was excellent, we were impressed with the quality of the meat. I would hire your company again in a heartbeat.

Everyone had a great time at the bbq.
The young college boys were polite and well mannered. The food quality was excellent and everything was served hot off of the grill.
Thank you for your follow up email! I would like to thank you and the rest of the Big Pig Barbecue team (including Sarrah who we worked with at the start) for an amazing event. It was a breeze working with the team on-site as they arrived early, communicated with us regarding every detail, and were friendly and professional with myself and our employees for the whole event. Even with the rain and wet conditions, the team was prepared with tents, hard-working, and positive through it all. We also had a Ben & Jerry’s truck on-site and I believe your team shared with their team and vice versa which was very nice to see.
We heard nothing but outstanding reviews about the food from all of our employees. Some stated it was the best BBQ food we’ve had in all our years of doing an employee appreciation BBQ (first time working with your team however). People raved about all the meat saying how moist, flavorful, and perfectly cooked it was. People also raved about the sides being flavorful and tasting just like their homemade BBQ favorites. I also heard outstanding reviews about the pickles and sauces.
Many people were asking me what company we used for the BBQ and if you guys had a physical location. I shared with all our employees your company information and location so hopefully some of our employees remain customers.
Thank you again for partnering with us for our event, we certainly hope to work with you in the future! Looking back, I wish I had seconds as everything was so delicious.

This is our second year using the BIG PIG to cater our annual employee appreciation party.
The set up crew was fantastic! They were quick, efficient, and so courteous. They are a great representation of your business.
The food, of course, was out of this world! Everyone enjoyed it, and the kids loved the mac & cheese. My husband is obsessed with the potato salad!
We will be looking to use you again next August, as well. Thank you so much for checking in with us. Everything was perfect.
I hope you have a fantastic day.

June 2023 Corporate Event
Hi Kayla,
From our team to yours, we cannot thank you enough! The onsite crew for our event was absolutely amazing. Each and every one of them was professional, polite, attentive, knowledgeable, and hard working. We could not have been in better hands. We received rave reviews from our customers regarding the food which was cooked and served to perfection. Everything was delicious and set out exactly as we had discussed. You have a top-notch team and I want to make sure you know how well they represented Big Pig BBQ. We appreciate all your management and coordination of the event beforehand too as this played a large role in making it a great success.
I told the team before they left – same time/same place next year! We were so happy with everything.
Thank you so much!
Laurie
P.S. And thank you for all the goodies (t-shirts, mug, etc.) which we shared amongst our team.

Good afternoon, folks.
Speaking for all of us, I just wanted to thank you for helping make our get together yesterday afternoon a HUGE success. Your food was sensational. The Marinated steak tips, pulled pork and chicken, were tender, moist and flavorful. I have been to many barbecues like the one we had yesterday, but NONE of them come close to the quality we enjoyed from you.
Kudos to your 3 young cooks as well. They were friendly respectful and obliging. They did a terrific job.
Happily, many a manager grabbed your business cards yesterday. We are proud to have been the first to introduce them to you. But don’t forget about us, LOL, because you can count on us using you again.
To your continued success.

Hi team,
Thank you for the great food and service today.
The entire process was positive, from the people I talked to on the phone to the day-of support.
Holly was exceedingly friendly, helpful and willing to go above and beyond - a friendly face amidst a stressful day! The young man who helped her was also great.
A colleague asked for your contact info so I'm sure you'll be hearing from The Weather Channel again soon.
Thanks again!

I can't say enough about Big Pig Catering. We had a Fourth of July party for about 50. We had the Southern Smoke package with brisket, chicken, and pulled pork and two sides (mac & cheese and potato salad). It arrived hot and on time on a less than perfect weather day. The setup person (Alex) was professional and friendly and dropped off some extras to go with our order. The guests raved about the food and we had some serious at-home smoke enthusiasts in the crowd. I will definitely order from Big Pig the next time we have a party.

I used a big pig barbecue for my son's first birthday in 2020. This year we use their catering services for our annual cookout. Everything, as usual, was far above expectations. We even had some of our guess brave the rain because they knew we were having big pig catering. The brisket is always juicy and perfectly done, the pulled pork exactly the same, their cornbread is by far my favorite, and the mac & cheese was the star of the show. They gave plenty of buns to feed our crowd, their sauces specifically the Carolina gold was a huge crowd pleaser. The food was hot and flavorful. We look forward to using big pig as much as we humanly can. If you haven't tried them out yet you are missing out! Big pig, will see you in October for our Halloween event! Thank you guys as always!

We had them cater a whole Pig Roast at our house twice now. The food is awesome. The team we got (both times) were really great. They set-up everything and offered to help us with other party set-up. Very professional and just all around good guys. And again, the FOOD WAS AWESOME!!!! This is the second time we've done a Pig Roast and our friends and neighbors rave about the party. We plan on keeping this as an annual tradition and will continue to use Big Pig BBQ

I hired big pig to do the catering for a customer appreciation day. They were absolutely amazing. One time and super professional. And I will talk about the food. It was in so great . Every single gas they had asked me where I got it from. I was more than happy to hand out their business cards to all of them. I highly recommend big pig in the crew.

We had the Big Pig cater our wedding and we couldn’t be happier with the food and experience. They brought the full smoking arsenal to our venue and had great aromas lofting (luckily it was an outdoor event). By chow time everyone was excited to try all the great food they had been smelling. I lost track of how many people told us it was the best brisket they’ve ever had. The ribs, pulled pork, and chicken were all top notch as well! Their sides are absolutely incredible and perfectly compliment the meats. Great Mac and Cheese, refreshing cucumber salad, awesome coleslaw and veggies were all delish! We knew we made the right choice at our tasting when the Pig Big stacked up against any BBQ we’ve had down south (Nashville, Texas, Carolinas). We weren’t wrong as almost every guest said it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. We stop by their shop anytime we’re passing along Rt. 1 and make sure to bring some home. We will never stop singing this Peabody gem’s praises!

We had a company event that Big Pig Catering catered too. It was hot, fresh and delicious. Everyone had great compliments on how good the food was. The day ended up not so great and rainy but they still stood outside, cooked and brought the food inside for us. They kept replenishing the food as needed. They did an excellent job! I would recommend them for your next event.

I had a catered BBQ graduation party for my 2 kids(1from high school and 1 from college). The grillmasters were AWESOME. The food quality, presentation and taste were incredible. I had 60 people at the party. A lot have had brisket down South and this was the best they ever had. They set up, cooked and cleaned up when they were done. I couldn't be happier with anything that I ordered.

I was so happy with our BBQ from The Big Pig for our 40th anniversary party. We had ordered the Uptown selection from the catering menu and were delighted. The steak tips were fantastic..so tender and moist. My family and friends were impressed. The chicken and ribs were also delicious.
The baked macaroni and cheese was yummy, as good as homemade and so were the corn bread and the coleslaw. We will definitely be visiting The Big Pig for more delectable goodies. Thank you for making our party such a wonderful feast!

We have been having parties catered by these guys since the day they started out. It only gets better and better! Crowd ALWAYS loves the food whether it is a huge backyard party or food for a football game gathering. You cannot go wrong. Best bbq anywhere and the staff is the best of the BEST!!!!
They provide absolutely everything you need for a party--from plates and utensils to wet wipes. You don't have to left a finger.
Cannot recommend them highly enough!!!
