Belfast has always been a city that loves good food and great company, but lately something new has been filling the air: the aroma of slow smoked BBQ. Leading this flavour movement is Smoke BBQ and its mobile catering arm, Smoke on the Road. From weddings to festivals and corporate gatherings, we are redefining how people eat, celebrate, and connect within Northern Ireland’s vibrant BBQ culture. You can explore our event catering service at Smoke on the Road.
The Rise of BBQ Culture in Belfast
Belfast has seen a growing desire for authentic American style BBQ. Locals are embracing smoky flavours, relaxed dining, and shared food experiences. Many people discover our BBQ for the first time through Smoke on the Road at events across the city.
What began as a niche trend has become a major part of Belfast’s food scene. Smoke BBQ has been at the centre of this rise, delivering authentic slow cooked flavours that people return to again and again.
From Restaurant to Road: Taking the Smoke to the Streets
Our Belfast smokehouse began with a simple goal: serve real low and slow BBQ to Northern Ireland. As demand grew, customers wanted our food at weddings, markets, and private events. This led to the launch of Smoke on the Road, a fully mobile smokehouse built to deliver restaurant quality BBQ anywhere. Event planners often explore our setup on Smoke on the Road.
Today our food truck Belfast setup is a popular sight across Northern Ireland, serving thousands of happy guests each year. You can see our upcoming locations on Smoke on the Road.
What Makes Our BBQ Different?
Great BBQ takes time and dedication. Every piece of meat we cook is smoked low and slow over carefully selected hardwoods. The result is tender, flavour rich perfection. Guests often learn about our cooking process through our detailed guide on Smoke on the Road.
People love watching our pitmasters in action, smelling the wood smoke, and seeing food prepared fresh onsite. This is what sets Smoke BBQ apart. It is more than food, it is a full sensory experience.
