Jourdan D. Sent on 07/22/2023A++ for the Amazing Autumn and AJ
The food was incredible! We had an array of delicious appetizers for cocktail hour (pimento cheese with spiced pecans, fresh fruit, and sausage and cheddar biscuit balls). For dinner we went with a buffet, set up with a beef tenderloin carving station, herbed chicken breasts, fingerling potatoes, grilled veggies, a light and refreshing apple and fennel salad with artisan bread and butter. They also provided late night trail mix snacks to help keep the guests fueled! Everyone absolutely loved the food! I have been told by several guests that it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had! AJ cooked the meat and veggies on site over an open fire which ensured everything was fresh and delicious. The tenderloin was so juicy, perfectly cooked, and the horseradish sauce sent it over the top! One guest couldn’t get enough of the spiced pecan pimento cheese and has been raving about it ever since! Everything was so well thought out and executed. We would absolutely recommend AJ and Autumn for any catered event! They take a lot of pride in what they do, are responsive, courteous and very professional! Thank you for helping to make our day unforgettable! Love you guys! -

AJ, his wife, and the rest of their team were fantastic to work with. AJ is an extremely impressive chef. He knows his stuff and is creative in his cuisine. I'm not typically a big BBQ person, but I trusted him and loved his menu, and it did not disappoint. He was very communicative and easy going. The food was delicious and the service provided by his crew was outstanding. They were friendly, professional, kind, and overall great. I highly recommend! (Go to their restaurant, too. It's delicious!!) -

Amazing food!
AJ at the Black Bear BBQ in Asheville was incredible to work with! He created a custom menu to include everything that my husband and I wanted which blended my husband's Cuban culture and my Southern likes. He listened to everything that we wanted, was always responsive, and was extremely flexible with our needs. Every guest of mine loved the food and my husband and I couldn't have been happier. If you're looking for flavorful food and want to ensure you're staying within your budget- AJ at the Black bear BBQ is the place to go! -

We are delighted with the quality of food and service Black Bear BBQ provided for our wedding. From the incredible and beautifully crafted appetizers for our cocktail hour to the incredibly delicious main course selections and the helpful and friendly staff Black Bear BBQ was excellent. We would highly recommend them for any event, big or small. We will be using them again in the future for other events we host! The review from our wedding guests was that it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding!! We could not be more grateful for the entire experience of using Black Bear BBQ. -

We hired them to cater our luncheon before our wedding rehearsal. Outside BBQ with Ribs, Chicken, cornbread, collard greens, baked beans, mac&cheese. Oh the food was delicious. They made our day perfect. We hardly had anything left over especially the ribs. They were just falling off the bone. They would be the one company we would hire again for catering. We wouldn’t go anywhere else for BBQ. -

AJ and his crew catered a wedding that I coordinated recently. The food was AMAZING but there's many more good things to say about Black Bear BBQ so keep reading! Some of the guests were vegan and some had Celiac's but AJ's spread offered something tasty for EVERYONE - which can be difficult for BBQ. He satisfied all of the couple's requests and more. He and his team overcame weather and layout challenges effortlessly and with professionalism. Definitely recommend these guys! -

We could not have asked for a better experience than working with AJ and the Black Bear BBQ Team.
My wife and I wanted something slightly different than the normal wedding cuisine. Our theme was Chic County Fair. We didn’t exactly know what that would like like at the time either, but a few conversations with AJ and we had the food all figured out. Our menu included mini corndogs, funnel cakes, smash sliders and grilled pineapples for hors d’oeuvres followed by the brisket (the best that anyone has had), jerk chicken and salmon for the mains. All cooked to perfection.
If you’re planning a wedding or event, you’re probably stressing about the food as food is quite literally the thing most people will walk away remembering, so we really can’t put a value on how helpful AJ and the team were at making this portion of the wedding so easy. Speaking of value, the prices were extremely fair. AJ doesn’t have price gouging in his bones, very much wants to please and will speak honestly about the pricing of the ingredients and what his service costs. No surprises. On the day of your event there is nothing more welcomed than compliments about your food and just about everyone took the time to rave about Black Bear BBQ.
If we ever plan another event of some sort, Black Bear BBQ is getting a call. Until then, we’ll be hoping for an invite to a wedding where Black Bear is catering.
Best of luck in your planning!

The gentleman who brought and set up the food did a great job! He brought his own tent and tables, tablecloths and set up the entire Buffet. Once he had everything ready, all we needed to do was "Ring the dinner bell". The food was excellent also! -

Blackbear BBQ catered my wedding ant the end of August and I had a great experience! They were very professional and handled manning the buffet for all the guests as well as supplying the food. Dinner was absolutely delicious- we got pulled pork & chicken, sausage, Mac and cheese, potato salad and cheddar biscuits. They also serviced our cocktail hour with apps and it looked great set up, and the pimento cheese was amazing!! It was all delicious and everything stayed warm and I would highly recommend Blackbear BBQ.
