About

On WeddingWire since 2017

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

The absolute best

We wanted our wedding to have a backyard/hangout vibe and good BBQ was right in line with that... little did I know the BBQ shawn and his family would provide would be THE BEST OF THE BEST. The food was phenomenal, the service was out of this world and I've heard nothing but rave reviews from our family and friends. Shawn was quick to respond to any questions I had before the wedding and just treated us like he was an old friend, I would absolutely recommend Nagels to anyone looking for catering!

Best catering decision you will ever make

First of all let me start by just saying how amazing of an experience it was working with Shawn. He was always there for every phone call. We changed our minds a couple of times about what we wanted to do for the meal and he was always totally supportive, even giving his suggestions that helped beyond measure. The food should get its own separate review it’s that good. I can’t tell you how many people asked during and after where the food came from and just overall raving about how amazing it all tasted. The cornbread is to die for and not one of the meats we tried was anything but the best. Having them be a part of our wedding truly made the day as special as it was for us.
