Before the afternoon heat locks in over Flowood, the parks are already full — joggers circling the lake, families spreading out blankets, the ordinary good stuff of a Mississippi weekend. Come lunchtime, people want food that matches the moment: unhurried, generous, built from real craft. Smokin Zo's delivers exactly that, with slow-smoked brisket, tender pulled pork, and ribs that spent the night in a cloud of hickory smoke.

Venues & Event Locations
Lefleur's Bluff State Park brings out Flowood's outdoorsy side, and Smokin Zo's has found a natural home there — ribs and smoke rings against a backdrop of old-growth trees and the Pearl River corridor. Over at Lakeland Park, where families and regulars make a full day of it, the smell of hickory smoke from Smokin Zo's rig is enough to turn a casual outing into a cookout. Spillway Madison Park rounds out the circuit; when an event draws a serious crowd there, Smokin Zo's is the kind of anchor vendor that keeps people happy and coming back for seconds.
Mississippi has health reciprocity — a food-truck health permit or inspection issued by any Mississippi jurisdiction is accepted statewide. Fire permits are issued locally.
If your event requires permitting, you'll work directly with the City of Flowood.
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.

Jess
Food Truck Booking Agent
Compassionate follow-up and organized menu support backed by commissary operations experience.
Jess judges good BBQ by the bark on a properly rendered brisket, and she brings that same attention to detail into planning smoky BBQ comfort food for real events. Her signature advice is to factor in the crowd's demographic mix, not just headcount, since vendor meals and service style change how much a group actually eats — a lesson proven across a 5,000-guest Southwest Airlines event and a 5-day stretch prepping 10 trucks for 50 events serving about 7,500 guests, each truck stocked with the right menu and inventory. Before smoke ever hits the pit for your event, she's also checking insurance, safety compliance, references, and fire-risk gaps so BBQ service keeps the event moving.
- Commissary inventory and kitchen ops for 10+ trucks
- Strong on follow-up, menu support, and client clarity
Jess will help you confirm menu direction, timing, access, and setup — and whether truck, buffet, or drop-off is the right fit for your event.
