Fat G’s also provides catering for all types of events from parties to celebrations, and everything in between. We even offer options for Thanksgiving catering Gainesville FL locals can call on who prefer a less traditional holiday meal.

What Sets Fat G’s Catering
Apart from Other BBQ Restaurants?
All-Natural Curing and Smoking: At Fat G’s Catering we believe that barbecue is at its best when simplified. Rather than try and experiment too heavily with method and meat, we focus on getting the purest smoke possible and seasoning to your preferences. We cook all our cured meats in the traditional wood-fired way. This method allows for your barbecue to soak in the natural aroma and tastes of the smoker, rendering a hearty and full-bodied BBQ meal. Our Gainesville food truck utilizes our on-site cooker to bring freshness right to your location. Creating the perfect barbecue also involves knowing what not to use in the curing and cooking process.
Real- Thoughtfully Sourced- Ingredients: When it comes to creating a knockout barbecue dish, how you choose to cook the meat is only one-half of a very important equation. The other half revolves around the type of meats and ingredients that you use in your recipe. Low brow and low-quality ingredients can only take your tastebuds so far, no matter how well they’re cooked. At Fat G’s Catering we focus on sourcing the highest quality ingredients possible. Whether you’re meeting us out at an event or hiring us for your very own Gainesville catering event, we have the quality ingredients and perfected cooking methods needed to provide an unforgettable experience for you and your guests. We work with local farms to bring you ethically sourced, delicious-tasting, meats. By cutting out fillers, we deliver the best plate of BBQ Gainesville has to offer.
