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 of Chubz Smokehouse & Grill

Meet The Owner, Richard Werabelski

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find the answer you're looking for? Reach out to our team.

How far in advance should I book the food truck?
We recommend booking Chubz Smokehouse & Grill at least 2-4 weeks before your event date. Food trucks in Detroit book quickly during peak seasons (Spring and Fall), so earlier is always better. For large corporate events with 100+ guests, 30 days advance notice ensures menu availability and proper staffing.
What types of events do you cater?
Chubz Smokehouse & Grill caters corporate lunches, office parties, employee appreciation events, team building gatherings, company picnics, community festivals, university events, government functions, holiday parties, and private celebrations throughout Detroit and surrounding areas.
Is there a minimum order or guest count?
Yes, Chubz Smokehouse & Grill has a minimum order of $1,500.00. This minimum covers essential costs including food preparation, staffing, travel to your Detroit location, and setup time. For smaller gatherings, consider our attendee-pay option where guests purchase their own meals.
What is included in the catering price?
Your catering quote from Chubz Smokehouse & Grill includes fresh food preparation, all serving supplies (plates, utensils, napkins), professional staff, setup and breakdown, and travel within the Detroit service area. Pricing is transparent with no hidden fees—you'll see the complete cost including taxes before confirming your booking.
Do I need to provide any utilities (power or water)?
No utilities required. Chubz Smokehouse & Grill is completely self-sufficient with onboard generators, water tanks, and cooking equipment. Simply provide a flat, accessible parking spot (approximately 12x30 feet) and we handle everything else. This makes food truck catering ideal for outdoor venues, parking lots, parks, and locations without kitchen facilities.
What happens in case of bad weather or cancellation?
We always try our best to work with you (and the truck) the best we can. Rescheduling is the best option when weather hits but our cancellation policy is outlined above.
Do you offer vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free options?
We always try to cater to the customer's needs. Please reach out with specific dietary requests and we'll do our best to accommodate them.
Are there allergy-conscious meals available?
Yes, we accommodate allergy needs whenever possible. Please reach out with specific requirements and we'll work with you to ensure safe meal options for all guests.
