On WeddingWire since 2020

Based in Orlando, Florida, Smoke & Donuts BBQ is a catering business with a unique menu.

Say I DO with BBQ! Smoke & Donuts is an award-winning BBQ restaurant specializing in oak-smoked meats, scratch-made sides, and made-to-order donuts. We offer the perfect marriage of chef techniques and pitmaster passion with customized catering packages and full service catering for weddings, rehearsal dinners, bachelor weekends, bachelorette brunches, family events, and more by owner and classically trained Culinary Institute of America Chef Ian Russell.

Whether you’re hosting an intimate backyard wedding or the ultimate boho chic wedding weekend, your guests will have an unforgettable dining experience full of fun and flavor they’ll be talking about for years to come!

Available for celebrations throughout Central Florida, Chef Ian and his talented culinary team specializes in providing celebrations of all sizes with mouthwatering barbeque and hot donuts in an enticing menu of smokey and sweet treats, including passed hors d’oeuvres, action stations, donut displays, and more. We can tailor a menu to any price point and ensure your guests are talking about our lip-smacking food and not Uncle Fred’s dance moves!

Cuisine

Smoke & Donuts menu features Texas-style USDA Prime Brisket, Carolina pulled pork, brown-butter turkey breast, house-made sausage, Bama/Carolina pulled chicken, St. Louis ribs, and mezcal-lime salmon. Build a menu with meats by the pound, scratch-made sides, fresh donuts, and local Florida craft beer.

Pairing the carefully crafted meats are scratch-made BBQ sauces and sides. Inspired by regional ingredients, utilizing classic techniques, these sides break from traditional barbecue fixings. Roasted & Smashed Red Potatoes topped with gremolata and brisket burnt ends, decadent Mac & Cheese is served classic (mild) or with Chipotle & Roasted Garlic (spicy). Street-Corn Rice with Charred poblanos, Cotija cheese, crema lime, grilled corn is sure to surprise and delight.

Want to fancy it up? For a truly memorable experience add passed appetizers during cocktail hour or one of our action stations to your wedding reception. Choose from oak-smoked brisket carved to order, the famous Bar-B-Cuban action station, or a fun donut frying, glazing, and topping station to let your guests make their own donut creation.

True to its namesake, Smoke & Donuts serves drool-worthy made-to-order cake donuts. Choose from a selection of tempting flavor combinations or customize your very own donut creation with a variety of glazes and toppings. Create a signature donut for your event or let your guests create their donut masterpieces with donut displays and action stations. Ask us about donut towers, donut walls, donut cakes, and donut favors to create a deliciously memorable event with ease! The adventurous foodies love our donuts topped with brisket and maple bourbon glaze. For a bite of wedded bliss try our donut topped with chantilly cream cheese, ripe strawberry slices and a sprinkle of smoked sea salt for a sweet finish to your special celebration!

Smoke & Donuts offers fully customizable catering packages for pick-up, delivery with setup, and fully staffed events. We'll take care of every detail for a stress-free, easy planning experience. Contact Chef Ian to discuss your upcoming wedding plans today.

    You Cannot Go Wrong!

    Wow wow wow! What a hit! Our guests loved the combination of savory, unique barbecue along with some truly spectacular donuts! We opted for their Bar-b-Cuban action station and it was AMAZEBALLS! Ben even brought us down our own private tray of cubans while we were finishing up photos during cocktail hour! The service they provided- from our tasting to execution on the big day was top-notch. We will be life-long Smoke & Donuts patrons! Thanks so much!

    Amazing all around

    We had Smoke & Donuts catered for our 80 person wedding and I can honestly say the experience from start to finish was absolutely amazing. The initial communication was very thorough and included detailed descriptions on the menu options and the owner who I spoke to was very friendly and accommodating. Communication remained great all the way up to the event. The prices were very affordable and the food was incredible. My guests absolutely loved the doughnuts so much that our cake was barely touched. The servers who oversaw the buffet were very nice and professional. And my guests are already talking about visiting the restaurant to get the food again sometime. Highly recommend for anyone looking to cater any event. You will not be disappointed.
