Food Truck Catering
Catering in Amarillo, TX
Amarillo mornings carry that dry Panhandle air, and by afternoon, if someone's running a proper BBQ operation nearby, you're going to know it before you see it. Smokin Zo's is the truck that announces itself — hardwood smoke, slow-rendered fat, the quiet confidence of a pitmaster who started early and planned to finish late. This is the kind of BBQ this part of Texas was built to appreciate.

Venues & Event Locations
At the Tri-State Fairgrounds Arena, where the energy runs high and the crowd runs deep, a plate of slow-smoked brisket is more than lunch — it's part of what makes the day feel complete. Emerson School Park is the kind of place where a pulled-pork sandwich disappears in three bites and someone's already back in line, which is exactly the rhythm Smokin Zo's is set up to handle. And when the Bones Hooks Park Stage fills up with neighbors and sound, Smokin Zo's is proud to be the smell drifting through the crowd.
Under HB 2844 (effective July 1, 2026), Texas has health and fire reciprocity — a food-truck health permit or fire inspection issued by any Texas jurisdiction is accepted statewide.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with Amarillo.
Smokin Zo's and our local partners carry current health, fire, and business licensing. We're glad to share our documentation with your venue or organizer on request.

David
Senior Booking Agent
Owner-operator experience across 11 trucks, 10 concepts, and real booking operations.
With over 3,000 truck events across ten concepts under his belt, David treats every host conversation as its own puzzle, matching menu, guest count, and timing to a setup that actually works on the ground. He's the one who kept Chevron fed at 1,500 meals a day for a month straight and held FedEx together at roughly 1,200 meals a weekend through Covid, experience that shows up now in his backup planning and quick pivots from truck to buffet when equipment gives out mid-event. That same problem-solving pushed him to help pass Colorado's statewide health and fire reciprocity bill, cutting through the old jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction mess so smoky BBQ comfort food can travel further without the friction.
- Owned and operated 11 food trucks across 10 concepts
- Commissary, ghost kitchen, and planning-flow experience
David will help you confirm menu direction, timing, access, and setup — and whether truck, buffet, or drop-off is the right fit for your event.
