Commercial-grade smoker rentals for experienced operators

Smoker Rentals & Cook Packages

Rent the same trailer smokers we cook on — or let us deliver the whole cook: smoker, meat, rub, sauce, wood, holding equipment and a plan. You cook, your crowd eats, we pick it all back up.

How It Works

Start by filling out the Rental Request Form. Tell us your date, how many people you're feeding and what you'd like to cook. We'll confirm availability, recommend the right smoker or package, and set up your rental agreement. Every rental is reviewed and approved by 2 Men and a Pig before it's confirmed.

1

Request a Date

Send us your event date, headcount and what you're cooking. We'll check the calendar and reply with a quote — usually the same day.

2

We Confirm & Set It Up

We approve the rental, collect your retainer and get the agreement signed. First-time renters of the SPK-500 get delivery, setup and a 15-minute operating rundown.

3

You Cook, We Retrieve

Cook your event. When you're done, return the smoker clean — or add our $75 cleaning service and just walk away. We handle the rest.

How Many People Are You Feeding?

Pick a headcount and we'll build the cook around it — smoker, meat quantities, holding equipment and a timeline.

Smokers & Pricing

These are not backyard party grills. Both units are commercial trailer smokers we cook on ourselves, and we rent them to caterers, competition teams, churches, schools, restaurants and experienced pitmasters. Prices do fluctuate and are confirmed with your quote.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need smoking experience to rent?

For the Primitive Pits offset, yes — it's a live-fire stick burner and fire management is on you. The SPK-500 is easier to run, and first-time renters get a hands-on rundown at delivery. If you've never cooked for a crowd, the cook packages include a written plan with quantities, temps and start times.

Can I tow it myself?

Approved renters can pick up the Primitive Pits with a properly equipped tow vehicle, insurance and a 2-inch ball. First-time SPK-500 rentals are delivered and picked up by us. Repeat renters can be approved for self-pickup.

What's the difference between the retainer and the deposit?

The retainer holds your date and applies to your rental price (cancellation rules apply). The security deposit is separate, refundable, and returned after we inspect the smoker.

Can you supply the meat?

Yes. With a cook package we deliver butts, brisket, ribs, chicken or sausage portioned for your headcount — trimmed and ready to go on. You can also bring your own.

Do you rent tables, chairs or tents?

No — we stick to cooking, holding and serving equipment. We work with an event-rental partner and can coordinate that for you.

What if I need it for a fundraiser?

Talk to us first. Many groups do better with our BBQ Fundraiser program, where we do the cooking and your group keeps the profit.
