Food Truck Catering
Catering in Carrollton, TX
A brisket doesn't rush, and neither does Carrollton's story. From its roots as a small North Texas farming town to its current life as one of the DFW metro's most culturally layered suburbs, this city has always rewarded patience — which makes it exactly the right place for a food truck built around the long, slow discipline of real pit BBQ. Smokin Zo's brings the bark, the smoke ring, and the kind of pulled pork that tastes like somebody actually cared about the process, because somebody did.

What We Cater in Carrollton, TX
The Carrollton of today — youth sports complexes humming on weekends, corporate parks filling Monday through Friday, a dining culture that spans dozens of cuisines and demands authenticity from all of them — is a city that rewards operators who show up with something real. BBQ done right, low and slow over real wood, earns its place at any table in this metro. Smokin Zo's doesn't try to fit every craving; it fits the one that matters most when someone's been on their feet all day and wants something with weight and smoke and craft behind it.

Venues & Event Locations
Alfred J Loos Stadium and Sports Complex draws the kind of crowd that works up a real appetite — and nothing resets a long day of competition like a plate of properly smoked ribs waiting beyond the gate. Across town, Tommy Standridge Stadium fills on game nights with the same energy, the kind of communal gathering that smoked brisket was practically invented to serve. Ward Steensen Park offers a quieter counterpoint — a neighborhood green where a weekend afternoon and a pulled-pork sandwich feel like they were always meant to share the same hour.
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 Carrollton.
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.
