Lynnae and Stephanie went above and beyond all expectations for my catered wedding. At all times their communication was constant and after meeting them for the initial tasting, I knew immediately that I could check it off my to do list. No only is the food FABULOUS.....seriously....the best BBQ I have EVER had....they are exceptional individuals to work with. On the day of my wedding we started receiving phone calls of guests explaining that there had been a large accident and the freeway, the only way to get to the wedding, was blocked off. Lynnae gave me a ring and told me that they would make it happen. After meeting her, I was not concerned in the least bit. If anyone could pull it off it would be this team. They got to the venue and worked extremely hard to make the timeline for dinner at the wedding. The biggest talk at the wedding was how wonderful the food was! That is still one of the first comments about that day, and one of my favorite memories. It was such a great experience being able to serve my guests the best BBQ they have ever had before. They even packed up the leftover that me and my husband could not keep our hand off for days after the ceremony. Sugars, you need a restaurant soon because you ruined all other BBQ for me!!!!! I need my fix :) read more

I organize my company's monthly shop lunches, and this month we got to try out Sugar's BBQ for the first time. UHHHH-MAZING choice. First off, working with Lynnae in organizing a menu for 50+ people on staff with different dietary restrictions was a breeze. She was very accommodating and helpful in laying out different menu options that would work. Upon delivery, she provided a print-out menu with everything she was serving and labeled whether it was vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, had dairy/eggs in it, or etc. VERY helpful. We got the ribs, pulled pork and four sides. Everything was delicious and devoured, especially the ribs that got rave reviews from our staff: "Meat just falls off the bone, there's nothing left at the end." "Best BBQ I've had in Portland." "I'm in a food coma, but I'm going back for seconds. I never go back for seconds." P.S. All of her house-made sauces were amazing as well, I tried a bit of each. Thanks so much Lynnae for the delicious lunch! It isn't easy finding catering that goes over so well with that many people :) I would most definitely recommend Sugar's BBQ to anyone looking to host a catered meal! All of the yums. read more

Sugar's BBQ catered my company's Annual Picnic on 7/09/17 and I will definitely be contacting them for future events! From the first phone call, Lynnae was very professional, easy to work with and had excellent communication/follow-up. Quotes were provided quickly and Lynnae made sure that every detail was taken care of. Prior to the event, Lynnae took the time to drive out to our venue and helped determine the best method to serve our attendees (expected 350 people) and her team came up with the best method to ensure an efficient line flow so everyone could quickly get their food. The FOOD! omg... the food was delicious. Meat didn't need any sauce... it was perfect right out of the smoker. Juicy, salty, delicious! The sides were also excellent and Lynnae worked with us to make sure that we had vegetarian options available. The presentation was great and fit in with our picnic perfectly. I highly recommend Sugars BBQ for your future events - reasonably priced, excellent food, excellent service... you will not be disappointed. read more

Lynnae and her talented team of BBQ wizards catered my wedding on August 12th. It was to. Die. For. I wanted something down to earth for our backyard wedding, and it needed to be delicious too. Providing a high level of customer service was also super important considering.. well... this was my wedding. Sugars fit the bill! I did not taste the food before I booked Lynnae, but I am glad I trusted Yelp. She did not dissapoint in the food department. The brisket is tender, flavorful, and moist. The corn salad is killer. I wish I could eat her bbq for breakfast, lunch and dinner. On top of the amazing food, Lynnae's service is impeccable. She is responsive, knowledgeable, and patient. She even made sure that my husband and I got the best pieces of brisket at the reception dinner. So thoughtful! The guests LOVED the entire meal. Several said it was THE BEST wedding dinner EVER. I agree. Thanks again Lynnae!! read more

We had Sugar's Barbecue cater our wedding in November of 2016 and we couldn't be more pleased with how everything turned out. - The private, pre-event sampling at their house with our family was comfortable and not filled with pressure in any way. - Lynnae and Stephanie were great to work with in the months leading up to our wedding and had great communication. The food they prepared was outstanding - all our guests agreed. We aren't sure if anything can be better than their barbecue, but their day-of-event service might be close; they handled everything from set-up to tear-down and we had nothing to worry about. We cannot say enough great things about Sugar's! We enjoyed their business so much we plan on taking one of their cooking classes along with some friends of ours in the coming months. Highly, highly recommend using Sugar's if you're wanting barbecue at your next catered event. read more

BEST BBQ IN THE PORTLAND AREA, If I could give an extra five stars, I would! Lynnae, from the beginning to end was SUPER AWESOME to work with! Sugar's BBQ was a hit at our company picnic this past Friday! Food was DELICIOUS and Sugars crew was the best! If you LOVE BARBECUE, SUGAR'S IS DEFINITELY THE ONE TO CALL! The RIBS are the best ever!!their BRISKET IS THE BEST I've ever had!!! It was a pleasure working with Lynnae from the start, wasn't worried at all about catering with the planning of our picnic and never had to worry; she always checked in to make sure everything was ok, to see if there were any changes, was easy to get a hold of even with her busy schedule. Her crew is sooooooo awesome as well! All of them troopers if you ask me...in a 103 degree weather, they took care of us and kept the food line moving and the food coming! THANK YOU LYNNAE AND CREW!! THANK YOU SUGAR'S!! read more

I took the Sugar's Barbecue class this weekend. I had first seen Lynnae on the BBQ Pitmasters All Stars, and learned she was from Portland. So, I looked her up and found out she gave classes, so I signed up right away and I am really glad I did. Lynnae shared a lot of great recipes with us. She is a rock star when it comes to Barbecue and I really appreciate her willingness to share her expertise and make us all better backyard pit bosses. The food was awesome and Lynnae and Stephanie were fantastic hosts. It was the most fun I have had all summer, and I learned a lot! Then we got to eat the food she just showed us how to make...it doesn't get any better than this. I highly recommend Sugar's BBQ school and I wish I had an event coming up so I could have them cater it. Did I mention how great the food was! read more

They just catered for us at Cornell Pump Company last Wednesday for ~150 folks and I'm here to tell you all of the food was fantastic from the potato salad to the mac and cheese with that really good melted cheese on top to the incredible smoked brisket and chicken. The chef knows how to BBQ and knows how to choose meat and knows her friken business. Head to toes outstanding and if you appreciate great meat, great sides and great service this is the place not to mention way healthy portion sizes (I and several others got a take home box!). These people love what they do and is shows in every way. Sorry, don't mean to lather it on but these guys are awesome and we WILL have them back because our company provides great food to the employees as a gesture of kindness and support and EVERYONE appreciated Sugars. read more

We had Sugars BBQ cater our wedding this past weekend and it was the best BBQ we've ever had! Our guests cannot stop talking about how great the food was! We had the pulled chicken, brisket, Mac n cheese & out beans. I can't pick just one favorite because it was all delicious! Lynnae & Stephanie are amazing, from the beginning they were so helpful and would always call or email me back right away! We planned this wedding out of state and these ladies made the process so stress free and simple! They even went out of their to meet me at the venue when I was up there for a quick weekend! You can't find any better caterers than Sugars BBQ for your wedding or event, they go above and beyond! We are so happy and thankful to have had them provide such great service and food on our special day! read more

Wow Wow Wow. Sugars came to be known to us through a family friend. We had just sampled a local bbq to use for my daughters wedding but before we committed my best friend put the stop to that. He had attended a party where Lynnea had brought a brisket and even after 3 years he could recall the taste. The call was made. Sugars was so awesome to work with as we were in Port Townsend and they are not. The food arrived hot, and even with the limited space the whole team did an awesome job. The brisket was as described and the flavor will resonate on my tastebuds for a long time. I am not a chicken guy, but if they were cooking it for me I would eat it everyday. Their sides were top notch, and accommodated our vegans with the most delightful Portabella Mushrooms. Highly recommend. read more

I had the good fortune of attending Lynnae's BBQ class last Saturday. First and foremost is Lynnae and Stephanie's attention to each person. Their interaction with each person was genuine and unscripted! Lynnae is an extremely talented Chef who also happens to be a World Class award winning BBQ Champion. She fielded questions from everyone providing real answers to help those interested in the competition side of BBQ and the backyard pitmaster to help them put out better food for their friends and families. If you want truly great food at an honest price! Then Sugar's Barbeque and Catering is the clear choice!. Having Lynnae and Stephanie cater your next event is the icing on the cake or in their case the SWEETNESS in your Saucy BBQ Affair! read more

I work for a large company where we hire BBQ caterers pretty often and Sugar's has been the best by far. I originally saw them on TV on BBQ Pitmasters and heard they were from Portland and decided to give them a try. I was a little nervous at first since I had never heard of them but was definitely IMPRESSED. Not only was the food to die for (literally all of it - we had the brisket, chicken, mac and cheese, potato salad, veggies, beans, and brownies), but the presentation and service was outstanding. They fed about 150 of our employees and I had multiple people come up to me and ask to order it again. If you need catering for an event, Sugar's is the way to go; you will not be disappointed. I promise you, it really is the BEST BBQ around. read more

We had Sugar's cater our 40th Anniversary party last weekend. 27 good friends and among them are some real "foodies". Absolutely rave reviews from everyone. The brisket with all the sauces was outstanding! Rave reviews for the ribs as well . . .moist, meaty and lots of great sauce options. Side dishes all fresh and delicious, including a green salad with fresh prepared dressings on the side. We live in Welches, an hour from Portland and Lynnae was there in person and on time with our food. She stayed a few minutes to explain the sauces, the warming process and to make sure we were all happy. Definitely recommend this business to anyone. We will definitely be using Sugar's in the future. read more

Sugar's Barbecue and Catering was mmmmmmmm good! From their "fall off the bone" ribs to their smoked brisket it left my tummy yearning for more, more, and some more :) Not to mention all of the different sauces that I very much appreciated that they didn't drench their delicious barbecue in. It was my first time eating Sugar's Barbecue and will MOST DEFINITELY not be my LAST time! Keep putting out that awesome food that you guys did at my wife's (company party - Velapoint, Hillsboro, OR) because as far as this barbecue lover is concerned NO OTHER BBQ eatery in the Portland area comes close to you guys. P.S. My wife "Toni" can't wait to get lessons from the Pitmaster herself! read more

One of the best decision we made for our wedding was to hire Sugars. They were so easy to work with. Lynnae and Stephanie are amazing. Lynnae was extremely communicative in every step of the process. They did a venue/site walkthrough weeks before wedding so they knew what we were thinking for setup. They were so accommodating in every way. The food was equally amazing. We didn't get to do a tasting but trusted the reviews and honestly no part of the meal was disappointing, everything tasted great and guests loved it. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone. In working with Sugars you get not only the best bbq but also the ability to work with some amazing people as well. read more

I booked Sugar's BBQ for a work luncheon full of BBQ-lovin' attendees. This was my first time planning this event and have set the bar sooooo high for the next one! Everyone was super impressed with the presentation (the pit and buffet line was awesome!), but even more impressed when they got the food! All of the attendees keeps raving about how stellar the BBQ was (especially the brisket) and how full they were. Lynnae was extremely personable and engaged our guests with her big personality and BBQ expertise. I could not have been more impressed with the day-of experience, as well as the booking process. I cant wait for another opportunity to use Sugar's BBQ again! read more

I treated my son-in-law to their BBQ class. We had a wonderful time and learned so much about how to prepare different cuts of meat, rub selection, sauce selection, temperature control and meat temperature. Lynnae and Stephanie are wonderful and the small class atmosphere allows you to ask plenty of questions. We learned do a brisket, a tri-tip, a chuck roast, a pork butt, chicken thighs and a pork belly cut into chunks and made into burnt ends or as the phrase was coined "meat marshmallows". The venue was perfect and I couldn't be more pleased. I would recommend this class to anyone and will attend another, perhaps in the fall in preparation for the holidays. read more

I met Lynnae in person about a month ago after watching her a couple of years ago on PitMasters, found out she had a catering company in Battle Ground, WA., along with a day long class to show us back yard BBQ grillers how the Pro's do it. What a great day and awesome hospitality that Lynnae and Stephanie give to us aspiring Grillers. Fun environment and I learned a lot about how to grill 6 different meats and Salmon, times, temps, rubs....the works. Awesome class and I'm going again in the fall for the Turkey and Ham class getting ready for Thanksgiving and Xmas. Thanks for the Great DAY. You both are awesome read more

Sugar's Barbecue is the absolute best. We just recently had them cater our company picnic for over 1,200 guests. All the employees have been raving about how delicious the food was. We will without a doubt work with them again in the future. Everyone kept saying "We need to reserve them for next years picnic!" The communication was amazing. This was our first company picnic so I was very overwhelmed. Lynnae reassured me there would be plenty of food and that everything would be great! She was absolutely right! Such great service and I was SO happy I found them. Best cater in the area! read more
