Keith's Sierra Smoker

If I could give 10 stars I would!Keith was super communicative, and helpful when it came to what I wanted for my wedding! Super amazing BBQ food, great vegetarian options, and perfectly tasting EVERYTHING! I will definitely look for these guys next time I'm out in Apple Hill, or any other event they're catering and recommend them 10x over!

!! note !! Folks - don't try to drive to the Yelp address shown for the business - They're a mobile and catering BBQ business.These guys are Da bomb! Fun, classy, and the moistest mouth-watering BBQ you'll likely sink your canines into 'fer miles around.We stumbled upon Keith's Sierra Smoker by accident - we were up at Grandpa's Cellar in Apple Hill. Had already eaten a disappointingly bland BBQ plate at the Jack Russell Brewery (liked their IPA though!).The guys at Keith's were so nice we ended up chatting with em - then we were offered some tasty samples and were blown away by the tenderness, juiciness and flavor! Apparently they marinate their tri-tip for two days, and it really shows up when it hits your taste buds.Even though we'd just eaten BBQ for lunch, we decided to order a plate to go. $10 got us a container brimming with their apple- and cherry-wood smoked meats, homemade beans (oh yeah) and macaroni salad. I'm not really a fan of mac salad, but their house made version was light and tasty, with nice crunchy pieces of celery.Apparently, they're based in Placerville and they do catering jobs.So, the south may have lost the war, but Keith's Sierra Smoker southern style BBQ has won us over!

My wife and I were very fortunate to find Keith to cook for our 40th Wedding Anniversary party at Cameron Park Lake this month. Keith and Paul did an outstanding job cooking Tri-tip, Chicken Breast, Baked Beans, and making excellent Pasta Salad. The Tri-tip was marinated for a couple days prior to our event and it was the beast Tri-tip were have ever had. Also, the Chicken had an nice smoke ring, and was tender and moist. The Baked Beans were very good. The entire meal was excellent, and Keith and Paul were so easy to work with. We would highly recommend Keith's Sierra Smoker.

Whenever I visit Apple Hill in the fall, I always have to eat Keith's BBQ for lunch. My friends and I love his tender meat and his homemade sauce. We've driven from farm to farm trying to find his location one year when he moved. Now that I have him on yelp, I'll call a few days before I hit the road. Make this a part of your annual visit and you'll want to go back every year.

Absolutely love these guys!!! We first tried their food when they catered for our best friends wedding and it was such great food we HAD to use them as our wedding caterer. My personal favorite is their Tri-tip, it's out of this world amazing, so tender and melts in your mouth, the very best I have ever had! One thing that was most important to us at our wedding was we didn't want mediocre wedding food, and let me tell you they did not disappoint !!!

We hired them for my daughter's wedding this last week end and they showed up prepared and ready to cook The food was excellent and the price was reasonable. We added food to the menu and no price gouging here. They were honest, polite and kept the lines of communication open. They made it fun! The rental company we hired for the linens and place settings didn't show up on time so I called Keith at the last minute and asked if he would bring his dishes and utensils and he did! We ended up not needing them but not one complaint from Keith or Paul. We will use Keith and Paul again in the future! Clean, professional, fun and fantastic food.

Keith and Paul catered my wedding in April. They were amazing! I heard nothing but positive comments, not only about how delicious the food was, but also on their service. When I asked for one veggie dish to not have bacon so that my vegetarian guests would have another option they came with stuffed mushrooms for them as well that were a big hit. They really went out of their way to make sure everything was taken care of. I didn't get to eat much on my wedding day, but they sent us home with the leftovers and it was the best meal I had ate in a while. My wedding coordinator even said she will be recommending them to her clients because of how easy they were to work with. On top of making the best BBQ around they are the perfect balance of fun and professional and their prices are incredibly reasonable. They are the best!!

Keith's Sierra Smoker was so great at our wedding! Honestly some of the best BBQ I have ever had and probably the best wedding food I have ever had....maybe I'm partial because it was my wedding but I had guests telling me days later how amazing the food was. Keith and Paul (the owners & master smokers) were great to work with. So friendly and easy going. Other catering companies are just crazy expensive, these guys are so reasonable for the quality and quantity of food they supply. They even wrapped up left over which we enjoyed over the next couple of days. I am looking for an excuse to book them again or find them at an event, craving their food! Best tri-tip ever! Thanks guys!

These guys are absolutely amazing!! They always go above and beyond to make sure your special day/event has no added stress. They even made me a to go plate to eat later at my wedding as they know bring the bride, sometimes you don't have time to eat that much. The tri tip is "to die for"!! I would definitely recommend them!
