Based out of Central New Jersey, Brakes & Briskets delivers premium wood-smoked craft BBQ. What ignited as cozy backyard cookouts has evolved into regular local “Meat Meet” events where car clubs unite over their dual passions for cars and BBQ. Our journey began with a humble brisket, seasoned simply and smoked slowly until it reached mouthwatering tenderness. Our shared love for cars drives our specialization in large-scale automotive events. Alongside this, we extend private and corporate catering services.
Today, our pit crew crafts all your BBQ classics including beef jerky, deli meats, flavorful sauces, and a few surprises to jumpstart your taste buds. Whether it’s an automotive show, corporate event, family gathering, birthday party, wedding reception, or personal meal prep… we’ve got your back for smoked perfection. Have a unique cut of meat in mind? Hit us up and let’s send it!
As we continually fine-tune the art of smoking, buckle up for the delicious rewards of our tender, smoky creations. The finish line may be unknown, but let’s savor this drive together one pit stop at a time.
Check out our upcoming events and media from past events.
how do we smoke the competition?
Brakes & Briskets throws down the gauntlet, smoking the competition with our signature approach and unmistakable presence. Fueled by a custom-built classic stick-burning offset smoker, our BBQ is infused with a curated blend of rubs (fondly named “brake dust”) and seasoned wood, yielding a flavor and texture that's simply unrivaled. Through our low and slow technique, we craft an irresistible bark and smoke ring that speaks volumes.
Think you can find BBQ that looks AND tastes as good as ours? Shift into gear and try, but be warned - you'll be craving our next brisket before you've even savored the first bite!
