Food Truck Catering
Catering in Cudahy, CA
Walk through Cudahy on a weekend afternoon and you'll catch the signs of a city that actually uses its public spaces — kids on fields, families in parks, neighbors leaning on fences catching up. It's a community that shows up for itself, and barbecue is the food that shows up right back. Smokin Zo's puts the slow-smoked craft — brisket with a proper smoke ring, ribs with the right pull — right in the middle of it all.

Venues & Event Locations
The Lugo Park Fitness Center draws an active, engaged crowd that appreciates real food after real effort — prime territory for a brisket-forward menu. When the Salt Lake Park Recreation Building hosts its regular community events, the gathering energy calls for something more substantial than a snack cart; slow-smoked barbecue answers that call. On the biggest event days, the Los Angeles Swimming Stadium brings the kind of volume that lets Smokin Zo's operate at full tilt.
California 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 City of Cudahy.
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.
