Buddy's reputation was built on catering back in the 70's when Buddy would take his special barbecue to political rallies in his old VW van. Before long, he was serving the world, at the World's Fair, and the word got around fast. The Smithsonian Institution even chose Buddy's to showcase barbecue at the Folk Life Festival in Washington, DC. In addition to many awards for barbecue, Buddy's has also been honored with awards for its outstanding, reliable catering.
Buddy's caters to more than 100,000 satisfied customers each year, and they keep coming back for more. It may have started with an old VW van, but now Buddy's has a fleet of refrigerated trucks to insure food quality and safety. They can even bring the barbecue pit to your location so you have that authentic barbecue aroma at your event.
