Food Truck Catering
Catering in Clermont, FL
The hills above Clermont hold their shape the way good BBQ holds its smoke — quietly, deliberately, with something worth waiting for at the end. This is a city built around gathering: at the parks, along the lakes, out on the open greens where neighbors become community. Smokin Zo's shows up to those gatherings with brisket and ribs that reflect the same unhurried craft Clermont itself runs on.

Venues & Event Locations
Jimmy Thomas Memorial Park draws families and neighbors who make a full day of it — exactly the kind of crowd that lines up for a proper plate of ribs with bark on every edge. Down at Lake David Park, evenings on the water have a way of turning into something memorable, and smoked brisket only adds to that. When Lakeridge Winery & Vineyards opens its grounds for events, the hillside setting calls for food worth lingering over, and Smokin Zo's is ready to answer.
Under CS/HB1193 (effective July 1, 2020), Florida has health reciprocity — a food-truck health permit or inspection issued by any Florida jurisdiction is accepted statewide. Fire permits are issued locally.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the City of Clermont.
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.

Kaleb
Food Truck Booking Agent
Detail-oriented booking support shaped by real truck and catering experience.
Backup planning is where Kaleb earns his keep — when a contractor's wheel bearing gave out en route to an event, he had a replacement smoked-meats truck on site in under 20 minutes, no dropped service. That instinct for fast, calm coordination is the same thing that let him shift a 200-guest wedding from buffet to BBQ truck service on just 30 minutes' notice. Before he'll put his name behind a truck for your event, he checks current fire extinguishers, valid health and fire licenses, and coolers that are labeled and organized, because generous portions and bold flavor only matter if the setup behind them holds up.
- Hands-on experience across 12 trucks and catering companies
- Strong on organization, communication, and execution
Kaleb will help you confirm menu direction, timing, access, and setup — and whether truck, buffet, or drop-off is the right fit for your event.

BBQ Catering FAQ — Clermont, FL
Food truck planning in Clermont can be oriented around local event contexts such as civic events, outdoor concerts, lakefront gatherings, and park events, with relevant local anchors around Clermont Performing Arts Center and Waterfront Park. Confirm setup, timing, access, and organizer requirements for the specific event site.
Relevant venue context for Clermont includes civic center and event hall rentals, parks and pavilion rentals, and lakefront parks and marinas. Confirm access, parking, power, service footprint, and property-specific requirements with the venue, organizer, or property contact before service.
For setup planning in Clermont, use the local logistics notes: Downtown or historic-district events should confirm organizer approval, setup timing, and access before service. Outdoor concert or amphitheater events should confirm vendor areas, setup timing, and weather backup plans. Final placement, timing, and approvals should be confirmed with the organizer, property contact, city, county, campus, or venue contact as applicable.
For outdoor food truck events in Clermont, use the seasonal planning notes: Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30, so coastal or waterfront outdoor events should keep a weather backup plan. Summer heat and humidity make shade, hydration, and guest-flow planning important for outdoor food-truck service. Keep the final setup plan tied to the event site, service timing, shade or weather backup needs, and organizer requirements.
Travel range and any fees depend on how far your event is from the nearest available truck. We confirm this when you request a quote.
