Food Truck Catering
Catering in Avon, CT
Cold continental air has a way of sharpening the appetite, and by the time an Avon morning has gone through its paces — the reservoir walk, the errands, the long coffee — a plate of smoked meat starts feeling less optional. Smokin Zo's works the way good barbecue always has: low heat, slow time, wood smoke doing the work while everything else waits. That approach lands naturally in a town that has never been in much of a hurry itself.

What We Cater in Avon, CT
Avon runs on routines that matter — weekend mornings at the reservoir, midday errands that stretch into conversation, evenings that call for something substantial before the temperature drops. Hearty smoked barbecue fits those moments the way a flannel fits a cold October Saturday: naturally, without any explanation needed. In a region where winters have genuine weight, a plate of low-and-slow ribs or pulled pork with a proper bark on it feels less like a trend and more like a sound decision.

Venues & Event Locations
Ferguson Theatre evenings have a certain afterglow that good food extends naturally, and Smokin Zo's has become part of how some of those nights find their ending. The walkers and cyclists who make a habit of Reservoir 6 Recreation Area know the particular satisfaction of earning a meal, and smoked brisket is a worthy reward for a long afternoon outdoors. On the University of Saint Joseph campus, where community gathers in ways that are both formal and spontaneous, the arrival of a barbecue truck shifts the atmosphere in the best possible direction.
Connecticut does not have health or fire reciprocity — each local jurisdiction issues its own food-truck permits.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the Town of Avon.
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.

Simon
Food Truck Booking Agent
Hands-on food truck experience, billing awareness, and event-tested operational perspective.
A decade in catering shaped how Simon plans BBQ built for real events, with 3 years leading prep kitchens behind 7 years of hands-on truck work, including buying and prepping for up to ten trucks a day to keep hundreds of guests fed with smoked favorites. That background includes recurring Southwest Airlines service for roughly 1,200 employees per event alongside brand work for Kroger, Amazon, and FedEx, plus a fall festival that jumped from about 100 guests to nearly 300, where Simon drove back for extra inventory so ticket times and food quality never slipped. His fire-safety know-how and feel for line-speed help him plan BBQ service that keeps the event moving, no matter how the guest count shifts.
- Worked across 1,000+ events and commissary operations
- Strong on billing, event flow, and booking support
Simon will help you confirm menu direction, timing, access, and setup — and whether truck, buffet, or drop-off is the right fit for your event.
