Smoke And Pickles Catering Company 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Starts at $62
  • Serves New Bedford, MA

We bring you a wood fire to roast, grill, bbq or smoke a feast. We offer over 30 kinds of tangy, fresh pickles, relishes and salsas for contrast. We track down all the freshest ingredients from local farms and fishing boats.

“We truly cannot speak highly enough of Smoke & Pickles! Our guests are still talking about "the best wedding food they've ever had" 3 months later, and we can't argue with them. Beyond creating an incredibly bespoke and personal menu for us (with plenty of GF and veggie options!) Sally was instrumental to the process. She helped us book all of our rentals (tent, flatware, plates, tables, etc) and she was always there for advice and to offer suggestions based on her experience. She met with us at PEAK to pick out our tableware, she gave us great suggestions for anything else we needed to rent, coordinated all the setup both on Friday and our actual wedding day, and was so prompt in her replies via email or phone. We could not have pulled it off without her expertise! We would have ended up spending a lot more money overall if we didn't have her guidance. And of course the food was amazing. I loved the fact that it was all local and in-season! Sustainability was very important when picking our vendors, so I appreciated the attention to detail, the composting, and support of local farmers and growers. Plus we got to take home the leftovers! Win/win/win. Lastly, the whole team truly cares about the process. They don't just throw food in pans on the table, but craft such gorgeous tablescapes that look like they fit in perfectly with the rest of the event. Handmade pottery, flowers, cutting boards...its beautiful to look at, AND to eat! If you need a caterer to deliver the BEST food and support your wedding or event - Smoke and Pickles is your team.”

We are Stephen and Rae! We met as teenagers in 2007 and married in 2012. We originally started college together in PA when Stephen encouraged me to pursue me passion in cooking. We moved to MA for me to attend Le Cordon Bleu while Stephen studied law. We settled here permanently after graduation. In 2020 I started RGKkitchen. Working together came naturally and quickly took off. Our most popular areas are Cape Cod, Boston, Newport/Middletown, & Narragansett. We service all of RI, the MA coast, and down to Mystic, CT. We typically travel within 80 miles of 02748 but do go further for some events. We're happy to accommodate if we can!

“Hiring Rae & RGKKitchen was one of the best wedding decisions we made! Wedding food is a huge decision, and we could not be any happier. From the moment I first reached out, Rae was responsive, kind, professional, and extremely helpful. She helped us pick out a menu that felt like us, and her presentation was absolutely stunning. She even brought us food during cocktail hour while we were still taking photos so that we didn’t miss a single thing! We had our own plates waiting for us when we got a moment to ourselves, and all we could hear the guests talking about as we walked through cocktail hour was how delicious everything was. Dinner was even better! The presentation was beautiful, and everything was served hot with plenty of food for everyone and even leftovers for us to take home! We immediately said to one another that we can’t wait to hire her for our events in the future and to enjoy her food many more times. I could not recommend her and her husband any more, they are so incredibly kind and we loved having them as part of our day. Their presence was so incredible and they were so involved, the food was just the cherry on top!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Keane’s was absolutely amazing! The food was beyond delicious. I’ve been to so many weddings where I can’t even remember the food, but I had been to two weddings catered by them prior to mine and their food stuck with me. I knew I had to have them for my own wedding, and they did not disappoint. One of the best parts was that they also provided an event coordinator. Alicia, my day of coordinator, was incredible! She was in touch with me months before the wedding, answering every single one of my questions, and on the day of she made everything run so smoothly. From the ceremony to the reception, she had everything perfectly organized, and I never had to stress. The catering staff was professional, attentive, and truly wonderful. They set up, cleaned up, and cleaned made sure everything was flawless. Our friends and family are still raving about how amazing the food was. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“I can’t say enough good things about Tailgate, specifically John and Julie. Throughout contact their communication was clear and informative. We took advantage of a complimentary tasting and of course the food was delicious from the start. However, the attitude and conciseness of the presentation that day was what really sold us. After booking the team kept in contact, and were quick to respond to any questions we had. As wedding day approached, the team was responsive and accommodating to all our final requests. The day of couldn’t have run more smoothly, and the food we ate was even better than the food we originally tried at our tasting. Our guests couldn’t say enough good things about the food, “I could eat 5 plates of the mashed potatoes” or “That steak marinade was delicious”. Overall, I am eternally grateful for John, Julie, and the rest of the Tailgate Gourmet team for the amazing food and seamless service they provided on the best day of my life. Would absolutely recommend them a million times over.”

And every dish is made from scratch with the freshest ingredients, down to the sauces and dressings. When the day arrives, we take care of every detail, so all that’s left for you is to be with the people you love, share a wonderful meal, and celebrate.

“Maeghan was so helpful and patient with us not knowing what we were doing and changing our minds throughout the planning phases. When I had questions I could always count on her getting back to me within a day, often the same day. The staff that were on site the day of the wedding were phenomenal; professional, kind, and EFFICIENT. I didn't get a chance to interact with them too much as I was losing my mind most of the day. We arrived late to the venue and they were already there; had tidied up the things we'd left out from setup the night before and were setting tables for us. They kept things running smoothly the whole day and went well beyond what I expected for clean up. I was too wound up and anxious to eat at all, but the guests all said the food was excellent. The only complaint I have is that clean-up may have been TOO efficient, we had to go hunting for boxes afterwards! :)”

Our authentic multicultural offerings set us apart, allowing couples the freedom to fuse different cultural cuisines to create a unique and personalized experience for their guests. Couples from different backgrounds can now share both of their cultures through one catering company.

“About 5-6 months before our wedding, our original caterer re-quoted our pricing that I had signed over a year ago and it had increased by almost 15k! I was so distraught and stressed, as you can imagine. Luckily I found Soraya through a Facebook wedding group after I had asked for a second opinion. SHE SAVED MY WEDDING DAY. My husband and I are Cambodian and Chinese and trying to find any upscale asian caterer in the NorthShore was darn near impossible. I had my heart set on an upscale multi-course asian banquet menu. We ended up with 10 courses! Soraya made it happen and all the food was made on site at our venue in Peabody (the Olio). Our guests could not stop raving about how delicious everything was! To think I almost went with drop catering as I thought that was my only option. Thank goodness I found Soraya! As anyone who has ever thrown a big event knows, the food will make or break an event. And Soraya's food MADE our wedding a huge success. Soraya made sure fried foods were crispy, hot foods were HOT, and each table service was flawlessly delivered. Even our foodie families were happy with the food and were so surprised at how authentic everything tasted. We had menu items that were Chinese and Cambodian. I would hire Soraya and her team again, and again, and again. She kept me at ease and made sure everything was flawlessly executed. THANK YOU again for everything Soraya. You have mine and my families deepest appreciation.”
