Overview

Specialists in smoke, fire & awesome food!
We love providing amazing wedding catering and barbecue inspired menus for corporate and private events.
Based in Angus, we are a purveyor of barbecue inspired catering, specialising in Texan barbecue.
Our food inspiration comes from natural methods of cooking, such as traditionally burning wood to cook and using the smoke to flavour meats and other foods, as well as barbecuing over wood and charcoal, and adding homemade spiced rubs and sauces. We've grown this idea into unique menus for all types of events from wedding breakfast dining and rustic feasts, to street food at Scotland’s best festivals and everything in between.
Walter, Pit Master, has worked in catering for many years; he is inspired by the relaxed family style of cooking and eating and wild methods of cooking and smoking found in the Southern States. His aim is to bring the best of barbecue inspired cuisine, combine it with the finest local Scottish produce and create beautifully unique catering options. Pit Boss, Ariane is in charge of everything else, especially customer service!
Our food & ethics
We pride ourselves on sourcing local, ethical and seasonal foods, if possible. We make sure our food is fresh and everything is home made to our own recipes wherever possible. Our wonderful suppliers include The Butcher The Baker, Dundee, who champion the best of cuts of Scotch meats including our signature pork shoulder, ribs and belly. We strive to use independent and local businesses for our other produce where we can.
We are also passionate about building a sustainable and environmentally responsible business. All our disposable packaging is recycled and biodegradable. We try to reduce food waste wherever we can and keep the travelling distance of our supplies as low as possible.
Wedding catering
There's nothing we enjoy more than to work with a couple to build a menu that's perfect for their Big Day. The wedding breakfast is one of the most memorable meals you will have, and we believe the best memories are filled with laughter, fun and amazing food.
We have tried to provide an alternative to the formal and sometimes restrictive traditional wedding catering. Our flexible relaxed menu aims to offer lots of choice, lots of barbecue inspired feasting options combined with refined and creative cooking - using the best locally and ethically sourced ingredients. We love to work with you to mix and match courses and dishes so you feel you have a menu that is a perfect fit for your wedding reception.
Relaxed buffet service allows you to choose and put together different dishes on a menu that best reflect your own personal tastes and bring your perfect meal to life. As part of this we are happy to work with you to select and where appropriate adapt the dishes with individual twists so that you feel it is truly your own. We can offer sharing platters served to seated guests with lots of choices of different meats, vegetarian options and side dishes you can design your own ideal wedding breakfast. We can also offer full waiting staff service. Wedding couples can then add in the additional courses to suit their day from canapes, starters, desserts and evening street food.
We offer a bespoke friendly service so please contact us if you would like any more information.
Corporate catering / private catering
We love to cater at corporate events and private parties, providing a professional and competitive service. We bring something unique to any occasion.
We are happy to cater for smaller parties and get-togethers, or large conferences. We have vast experience in delivering a range of food options and services to suit various tastes and budgets. We usually serve from our eye catching barbecue trailer, Big Bertha, or we can use a prep area or tent depending on your venue.
Some of our most popular menu items are listed below, equally we’re happy to work with you to build a menu to suit your event.
We have worked for, and continue to work with a number of high profile clients with great feedback.
Specific requirements
As we make everything from scratch in house it also allows us to cater for any specific dietary requirements, adapting dishes where necessary. We also have lots of vegetarian or vegan dishes on the menu which can be served separately where required and lots of our food can be adapted upon request.
When it comes to the Big Day or private party, the food is cooked by our professional team; Ariane will act as Front of House manager will be on hand to oversee food service. We can arrange amazing waiting staff to provide their friendly expertise. We believe by having a tight knit dedicated team we can ensure the highest quality consistently at every single event we attend.
We can arrange for a bar and drink service, through our partners.
While we can provide compostable plates and cutlery, you may want quality china, cutlery and glassware. We can arrange for this to be delivered and picked up to and from your venue. You won’t need to worry about the washing-up!

Thank you! Would highly recommend.

Walter and Ariane catered at our wedding in March, the food was absolutely delicious and we still have guests telling us that it was the best wedding food that they have ever had. Communication was excellent and the team made everything stress free for our day. Thank you! Would highly recommend.

We were fortunate enough to have Wild & Smoky cater our wedding in May this year. We were looking for a relaxed atmosphere with incredible tasting high-quality food, and Wild & Smoky fit that bill perfectly. Walter and Ariane are such kind, enthusiastic, interesting, talented and engaging people. Nothing was too much trouble. They created a menu and flow of the day that was absolutely perfect for us. They also brought along some excellent people to help with the food and bar service, who were all an absolute credit to them. They worked tirelessly on the on day, and things seemed to go so smoothly. And the food – WOW! Just incredible. You really, really, really will not be disappointed. Our guests were raving about it all night! We cannot thank you enough!
