We have been experimental cooks for over 25 years in Lancaster, PA.  In the past, we've enjoyed hosting large raucous parties as well as small intimate gourmet dinners.  Now it's your turn to have a party.  For some folks, planning a party can be a daunting task,often fraying nerves. We can help. Our years of experience will enable us to show you some shortcuts through an on-site consultation. 

Our philosophy and practice is that pit-smoked meats are not your typical fast food.  We slowly cook your selection for up to 20 hours, using a mixture of hickory and select fruitwoods to ensure the tenderness and rich flavor of your meats.
