BBQ Delivery Done Right

When it comes to BBQ delivery, it’s easy to settle for food that’s been sitting too long or just doesn’t travel well. At Pendragon’s Smokehouse, we built our service to solve that. Every order is smoked low and slow, packed with care, and delivered hot, so it’s ready to enjoy the moment it arrives. No reheating. No guesswork. Just real BBQ, done properly.

Now Serving Our Winter Menu

The season’s changed and so have our dishes

Cold days call for deeper flavor. From paprika-rubbed ribs and hearty chili to smoky baked beans and buttery crumble, our winter menu celebrates the comfort of good food shared at home.

Much of our menu is gluten-free, with a couple of exceptions. Allergen notes are listed on every item, please contact us if you have any questions.

What Matters Most to Us

Hand-drawn smoked meat representing quality, responsibly sourced meats

Carefully Sourced Meats

We partner with trusted local butchers and choose cuts for quality, not convenience. Our ribs? We use a variety of St. Louis Style pork ribs, picked for their marbling and flavor.

Thoughtful Packaging

Nearly all of our packaging is recyclable or compostable. If plastic is ever included, it’s plant-derived (PLA) or used only when no safe and practical alternative exists.

Scratch-Cooked, Always

We make everything ourselves, from rubs to sides to desserts. We keep preservatives to a bare minimum because real food should taste like, well, real food.

About That Pink Ring…

See a pink edge on your smoked meat? That’s called a smoke ring, a natural result of long, slow cooking over wood. It’s a mark of quality, not undercooking.
