Food Truck Catering
Catering in Daphne, AL
Smoke has a way of telling the truth about a place. Daphne used to be the quiet town that Eastern Shore commuters drove through on the way somewhere else — and now it's the somewhere else, a coastal-metro community that has figured out exactly what it wants and isn't shy about it. Real pit-smoked BBQ fits here the way a long afternoon does: unhurried, deeply satisfying, and completely at home.

What We Cater in Daphne, AL
When a metro community is also a leisure destination, the events calendar fills fast and the food has to keep up. Smokin Zo's operates at the intersection of backyard-cookout warmth and genuine pit-craft — the kind of BBQ that works equally well at a corporate lunch, a neighborhood block party, or a waterfront festival. In a city where the vibe runs coastal and the expectations run high, that combination earns its spot.

Venues & Event Locations
Meaher State Park sits at the edge of the delta like a deep breath — the kind of venue where the surroundings do half the work, and a platter of properly smoked BBQ does the rest. The crowd at Village Point Park Preserve tends to arrive with time on their hands and an eye for the finer details of an afternoon well spent, which makes them exactly the audience that appreciates a smoke ring done right. And when Seely's Gallery by the Bay hosts the community around its art and its bay views, Smokin Zo's has proven to be the kind of addition that makes a good event memorable.
Under SB197 (effective January 1, 2027), Alabama has health and fire reciprocity — a food-truck health permit or fire inspection issued by any Alabama jurisdiction is accepted statewide.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the City of Daphne.
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.
