🐷❤️ At Big Red’s, we believe great food should NEVER go to waste.

When we have leftovers after an event, we love paying it forward by donating food to local fire stations. And let’s just say… they’re always happy to see us coming! 🚒😂🔥

It’s our small way of saying thank you to the men and women who are always there for our communities.

Great BBQ. Full bellies. Giving back.

That’s a party we can get behind. 🐷❤️

🐷🔥 Meet Shelley… and yes, she’s about to become some INCREDIBLE pulled pork sandwiches.

Shelley is an Iowa sow, and today we’re breaking her down the Big Red’s way. But before the pulled pork hits the bun, Carl has a few adventurous samples for anyone brave enough to try them… 👀

Some people run away. Others come back for seconds. 😂

That’s the Big Red’s experience. You don’t just show up, grab a sandwich and leave. You get the food, the stories, the laughs and sometimes a chance to try something you never thought you’d eat.

👇 Be honest… which one are you trying first?

🌽🔥 The pig may be the star of the show… but don’t sleep on the SIDES. 😂🐷

Tim’s godmother’s famous cornbread recipe is soft, moist and dangerously addictive. Want it classic? Done. Want jalapeño cheddar? Even better. Want extra corn? We’ve got you. 🌶️🧀

Then there’s our fresh coleslaw, made daily with Tim’s dad’s homemade mix. We keep it crisp, fresh and ready to pile HIGH on a pulled pork sandwich. 🤤

Family recipes. Fresh ingredients. Big flavor.

That’s how we do things at Big Red’s. Now pass us a plate! 🔥🐷

👇 Be honest… are you team Jalapeño Cheddar Cornbread or Coleslaw on Pulled Pork?

🔥🐷 We’ve been BUSY… and we wouldn’t have it any other way!

This week took us from a Top Gun themed corporate party in downtown Chicago, serving roughly 400–450 guests ✈️🕶️, to another incredible corporate event featuring a massive 16-item food spread including brisket, baby back ribs and plenty more. 🤤🔥

Corporate events. Big crowds. Big flavors. Big experiences.

We’ve been staying busy, feeding hungry people and doing what we love most: bringing people together over incredible food.

And this is just the beginning… 🐷🔥

If you’re planning an upcoming corporate event, holiday party, company celebration or private event, now is the time to start locking in your date.

📅 Bring the people. We’ll bring the party.

🐷 Around here, every pig needs a name. 😂

We tried Peppa once… turns out the kids weren’t too happy seeing Peppa become dinner. 😳🔥

Lesson learned.

Now we stick with hurricane names. 🌪️🐷

Less emotional damage. Same delicious BBQ. 😂

🐷🔥 100 POUNDS OF PIG + WOLVERINE CLAWS… what could possibly go wrong?! 😂

Tim’s breaking down today’s whole hog roast…a 100-pound pig that’ll give us roughly 50–60 pounds of fresh pulled pork, enough to feed around 80 hungry people. We’ve only got 60 guests today, so you already know… NOBODY is leaving hungry! 💪🍖

Then come the Wolverine claws. 🐺😂 We pull that pork fresh, right off the bone, while your guests watch.

And Carl’s secret rub? Apparently it’s a carefully guarded combination of black dirt, sand, pepper and “gutter stuff.” 🤦‍♂️😂

Don’t worry… Big Red has been known to exaggerate once or twice.

This is why we say we’re more than catering. It’s dinner AND a show.

Planning a corporate event, company picnic, wedding, graduation or private party? Bring the people…we’ll bring the pig, the Wolverine claws and plenty of laughs. 🐷🔥

🐷🔥 Low and slow… then CRANK UP THE HEAT!

That’s how we do it at Big Red’s.

We slow-roast our pigs around 225–250° to get that tender, juicy meat… then finish them HOT to create that crispy, crunchy chicharrón-style skin everyone fights over. 🤤

And if you’re hanging around Carl long enough, don’t be surprised if he convinces you to try the tongue too. 😂 Add a little Big Red’s BBQ sauce and you might just discover a new favorite!

But remember… the holidays will be here before you know it! 🎄🔥

If you’re planning a company holiday party, employee appreciation event, family gathering or end-of-year celebration, don’t wait until the calendar fills up.

📅 Secure your holiday date NOW and let us bring the food, the fun and the full Big Red’s experience!

🐷 Great BBQ.
🔥 Crispy skin.
😂 Plenty of laughs.
🎉 One unforgettable party.

🐷 Chicago… have you ever actually experienced a REAL pig roast? 👀🔥

You’d be surprised how many people eat pork their entire lives but have never seen where the different cuts actually come from.

That’s where Big Red comes in. 😂

When we roll into your event with a whole pig, Carl doesn’t just start carving…he puts on a show! You’ll laugh, learn a few things you probably NEVER wanted to know about a pig 😂, and then eat some incredible BBQ.

Because anyone can drop off trays of food.

We want your guests talking about the experience on the ride home.

That’s the Big Red’s difference: incredible food, a little education, a LOT of personality, and an unforgettable whole-hog experience.

🐷🔥 Don’t just cater your next party. Give them something to talk about.

Planning a corporate event, company picnic, wedding, graduation or private party? Let’s go whole hog!

When the customer says the food AND the show were unbelievable… THAT’S what we love to hear! 🐷🔥

We had about 90 guests at this “small gathering” 😆 and brought the full Big Red’s experience…amazing BBQ, plenty of laughs, and of course Carl doing what Carl does best… putting on a SHOW!

And apparently the elote street corn + jalapeño cheddar cornbread deserve their own fan club. 🌽🌶️😂

That’s what makes us different. We don’t just cater your party…we help turn it into an experience your guests will remember.

Huge thank you to Buck & his family for trusting us and for the incredible review!
