Best BBQ for all events

I run large medical education courses with participation numbers anywhere from 50 to 250 people. BBQ Daddy caters one of my dinners for every course i hold. I have tried almost all the bbq joints in Phoenix and BBQ Daddy is by far the best bbq in the area. The meat is moist, tender and flavorful. The side items are wonderful and contribute to the perfect meal.

Adams-Terry wedding

I would give Terry more stars if they were available. He was so easy to work with and SUPER FRIENDLY and funny!. He catered my daughters wedding. We had a tasting in January of 2022 and the wedding was November of 2022. One of the items we chose for the menu was the grilled veggies. A couple weeks before the wedding Terry called me to say grilled veggies could be done if I really wanted them but he advised me against it telling me the veggies would get to soft from the steam, and then offered me another great option of roasted broccoli! The food for the wedding was amazing!! We had so many genuine compliments about the meats and the MAC AND CHEESE....so yummy (would love to get that recipe when Terry isn't looking)!!! Also rented all the tables, chairs, linens, tableware and toilet trailer from BBQ daddy. Everything was excellent. I believe when people talk about food at a wedding it is not very memorable or is memorable in a bad way....not this meal, delicious!
