About Chubz Smokehouse & Grill

Smoked brisket plates and loaded dogs that make people line up. I run brisket, pulled pork, the Chubz Dirty Dog, and a few surprise fusion items. I do boxed lunches for crews and meetings. I cater on-site service for one big table, an office lunch, or a backyard cookout. I keep options for vegans, vegetarians, and gluten-free folks. Halal choices are available by request. I’m veteran owned and I treat events like missions, not ceremonies. Portions are honest and the plates come how they come, no pretense. If you need straightforward BBQ with some fusion twists and boxed lunches that feed a crowd, I’ll show up and feed them. We are equipped with any type of equipment to get the job done. Both of our trucks are equipped with electric hot boxes, this ensures ur food stays and food safe temps to ensure quaility and safety. Our trucks are also set up for speed to get people served in under a minute time frame. With large crowds I always recommend setting up buffet style we have the equipment an team to handle both type of events. Our can change to any type of food you desire at your event. From busget friendly all the way up to plated high end meals with that chef style touch to it.

Richard Werabelski

Owner, Chubz Smokehouse & Grill

I am a family man that will take care of your family as if it were my own. I remember the first time I rolled the smoker out and parked where people could actually see it, that moment when a neighborhood need in spring 2020 stopped being something to think about and became something to do. I left the military and found myself feeding neighbors and first responders during those early pandemic months, about 900 meals handed out, and that kept me moving forward. I saw a need for our business to keep serving our community and built a crew who specializes in customer service, as well as quality. We started showing up at community events and on a morning TV spot ahead of a holiday, and the routine of reliable service and steady hands is what keeps me going. I run Chubz Smokehouse and Grill because showing up for people is how I measure success.

When to Book

Recommended lead time
15–30 days before your event

The further ahead you book, the more trucks you'll have to choose from. Planning ahead is the best way to secure your top pick.

That said, shorter timelines work too—we book events just days out all the time. You'll just have fewer options to choose from.

Busy seasons: Spring and Fall are our most popular times in Detroit, so booking early gives you the best selection.

What is included in the catering price?
Your quote from Chubz Smokehouse & Grill includes food preparation, serving supplies (plates, utensils, napkins), the truck's staff, and setup and breakdown. Some trucks charge a travel fee depending on how far the venue is; the truck will let you know if one applies. The per-serving prices on this page already include Food Truck Club's service fee; sales tax is added and the complete total is shown before you confirm.
How far in advance should I book Chubz Smokehouse & Grill?
Fifteen to thirty days gives you the best shot at your first-choice date, and shorter timelines work too. Food trucks in Detroit book up fastest in spring and fall, and events with 100+ guests benefit from a little extra notice for menu planning and staffing.
What types of events does Chubz Smokehouse & Grill cater?
Chubz Smokehouse & Grill is new to Food Truck Club, so there are no platform bookings to show yet. Corporate lunches, employee appreciation days, community festivals, school and university events, and private celebrations around Detroit are all bookable from this page.
Where does Chubz Smokehouse & Grill serve?
Chubz Smokehouse & Grill is based in Detroit, MI and takes bookings across Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Washtenaw, Livingston, Monroe, St. Clair, Lapeer, Genesee and Lenawee Counties. Some trucks charge a travel fee depending on how far the venue is, so include the full event address in your request and the truck will let you know if one applies. For a venue outside this area, the truck will confirm whether it can make the trip.
Do you offer vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or allergy-conscious options?
Chubz Smokehouse & Grill lists vegetarian options, vegan options, gluten-free options and halal options on its profile. Include a count for each in your booking request so the truck preps enough, and flag any allergies at the same time.
Do I need to provide any utilities (power or water)?
Usually not. Most food trucks arrive with their own generator, water tank, and cooking equipment, so a flat, accessible parking spot of roughly 12 by 25 feet is all they need. Some trailers and dessert carts do run on an outlet, so mention what your venue offers and Chubz Smokehouse & Grill will confirm any hookups before the event.
What happens in case of bad weather or cancellation?
Rescheduling is the usual answer when weather turns, and we work with you and the truck to find a date. If the event has to be cancelled, the refund follows the cancellation policy above.
