I can’t recommend The Moose is Loose BBQ enough! They were very responsive and helped me with the perfect menu for my son’s college graduation party. The BBQ’d shrimp is a must! The homemade coleslaw was a perfect match with pulled chicken, pulled pork, and flank steak. The Caesar salad was fresh and the baked beans were delicious. They arrived early, set up everything, and were completely flexible with the timing of food service (shrimp as the appetizer and the main meal). They were a lot of fun and I’m so glad to have met them!

We had Moose is Loose BBQ cater our graduation party, and they absolutely knocked it out of the park. Ken and Annmarie are the kind of people you want to work with: friendly, professional, and completely on top of everything from setup to cleanup.

The food was, without a doubt, the best BBQ we have ever had. We’ve tried BBQ all across the country, and nothing compares. The steak, shrimp, pulled pork, and smoked turkey breast were all perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The sides were just as impressive, and our guests are still raving about the meal.

Outstanding service, great value, and genuinely good people. Highly recommend.

I've known Ken for 20 plus years. He's done major events with me and is our go to caterer for the North American Police Equestrian Council. Reasonable pricing and superior food and service.

Moose catered our party for about 60 people on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. So many compliments on the quality of the BBQ. Pulled chicken, pork, ribs and flank steak were all amazing, all recommended. A must for your next event!

I enjoyed working with The Moose is Loose BBQ during American Iron Speed-n-Cycle’s Annual Open House. Moose is cool—laid-back, always rocking those shorts, and just an all-around solid guy to work with. His easygoing vibe makes event coordination seamless, and he keeps things running smooth—even when there’s a hungry crowd lining up for chow.

And the food? Next-level. Smoky, tender meats, perfectly seasoned sides, and portions that keep people talking long after the event. Our team and attendees love The Moose is Loose BBQ—it’s a must-have at the open house year after year.

If you're looking for a caterer who brings killer BBQ, great service, and zero hassle, Moose is your guy. Highly recommend.

American Iron Speed-n-Cycle

The Moose is Loose BBQ has been a fan favorite at American Iron Speed-n-Cycle’s Annual Open House for three years in a row, and they never disappoint! Their BBQ is out of this world—perfectly smoked meats, flavorful sides, and portions that keep our customers coming back for more. Year after year, the line forms fast, and for good reason—their food is just that good!

Beyond the unbeatable flavor, their presentation is always top-notch—clean, organized, and inviting. And let’s talk about their customer service—friendly, professional, and efficient, they handle big crowds with ease while making everyone feel welcome.

If you're a BBQ lover or planning an event, we highly recommend The Moose is Loose BBQ. They bring top-quality food, great service, and a fantastic experience every time. We’re already looking forward to having them back for our 2025 event—if you haven’t tried them yet, you’re missing out!

1. The Moose and his wife were absolutely amazing! We were blown away by their excellent communication, commitment to our event, and of course...the delicious food. We couldn't have wished for a more perfect host and tastier dishes. I highly suggest trying the BBQ Shrimp, Turkey, Brisket, and Flank Steak. Thank you, Moose, for catering to our group and making our kids event an amazing experience.

We hired Moose to cater our daughters 16th birthday party and I am so glad that we did! He was very easy to work with in creating a menu and keeping within our budget. Moose and his wife came early to cook the food on site and were so pleasant and fun to work with. The food was excellent and had many guests raving about it. Would definitely recommend them and plan on using him again in the future!

This was the best Bbq ever! My guests were blown away by the food quality. We got pulled pork, chicken and flank steak. Delicious! Contracted them for my daughter’s graduation and from beginning to end they had great contact with us. Highly recommended.

Ken and his wife came to help cater our party this past weekend, and I could not be happier! I live in GA and found their company online and was able to email/call/text Ken at any time with questions and concerns. I found his responsiveness very helpful since my husband and I are not local and needed help with someone who could handle food for our big party.Ken worked on a menu that suited our needs and helped keep us on budget. The day of, he arrived early to prep and cook. I loved the big grill (from which he served from) - it added to our cowboy themed party! For food, we ordered the: pulled pork, smoked turkey, brisket, ribs, and hot dogs. Everyone loved it!!Sure, there are other BBQ places in Maryland, but I don't think you'll find a company more passionate, customer focused, and delicious than The Moose is Loose BBQ! Thank you guys!!
