About this vendor
Nagel’s BBQ was officially established in August 2013, but my enjoyment of preparing barbecue began long before that with my father Bob. What began as a love for eating BBQ, progressed to a coworker suggesting I sell it, and now here we are.
In 2012 I met my future business partner, best friend, and ridiculously more attractive future wife. Sara and I were married in June 2015 and the family business truly began. Nagel's BBQ now consists of my wife
Sara, Mother-in-Law Sue, children Chase and Slade and Liam, and occasionally other family and friends we can con into helping us (with our phenomenal BBQ as a bribe of course). As we are hoping to grow our family further we are excited to grow our business right along with it.
In the spirit of not forgetting who we are,and where we came from, we continue to prepare our meats and sides with the same care and personal touch used from the beginning.
Along with efforts to provide the best food we believe it is even more important to give you, our customers, the best experience we possibly can. This is why we ask you “what do you want” for your event, and not simply “this is what we can offer”.
We thank you if you are a repeat customer and look forward to working with you if you are a potential client. We promise you’ll love our food, service, and positive attitude we provide.
All the best,
The Nagels

Nagels BBQ was absolutely scrumptious from start to finish. Shawn is such a genuine, down-to-earth, great guy and was truly a joy to work with throughout the entire process. He wen...
t out of his way to make everything easy for us and even made accommodations for our vegetarian guests, which meant so much.
Honestly, Nagels BBQ was the first catering company we sampled—and the only one. The food was THAT good. We never once regretted that decision.
On the wedding day, Shawn went above and beyond in every possible way. Not only was the food incredible, but he was also clearing plates from tables for guests and packing up leftovers for us to take home at the end of the night. That level of care and service is rare.
Most couples freeze a slice of wedding cake after their wedding… we froze our BBQ so we could enjoy it when we got back from our honeymoon!
The only way this business could possibly be better is if they opened a brick-and-mortar restaurant so we could eat their food whenever we wanted.
The entire experience was an easy 10/10. We cannot recommend Nagels BBQ enough!
We couldn't reccomend Nagel's BBQ more! They were very easy to work to with, making accommodations for those within our party who had gluten allergies, and they were willing to hav...
e us add a salad 2 weeks before the wedding! Everything they provided eased a lot of stress on our end, making sure that we had the best day ever. We personally have had Nagel's at another wedding we attending and I could not stop thinking about the food. When I got engaged, I knew nothing of what I wanted except for my caterer! You will not be disappointed in the slightest if you choose to go with Nagels!!

re shocked we were able to get so much food that tasted as good as it did for the price. We did a tasting beforehand and he provided excellent recommendations. People are still talking about the food from our wedding a year later! He was so easy to work with and accommodating to our outdoor, bare-bones venue. We would recommend Nagels to anyone looking for a caterer for their wedding!
