Authentic wood-smoked flavor

Handcrafted, slow-smoked barbecue made with family recipes and Michigan heart. Find our food truck or book us for your next event.

Fresh from the pit

We believe true barbecue cannot be rushed. Every cut of meat is seasoned with our signature dry rub and smoked over real hardwood for hours until tender, juicy, and packed with deep flavor.

Smoked brisket

Prime beef smoked low and slow for fourteen hours until melt-in-your-mouth tender.

Pulled pork

Hand-shredded pork shoulder infused with hickory smoke and tossed in house glaze.

St. Louis ribs

Fall-off-the-bone tender ribs glazed with our signature sweet and tangy sauce.

Homestyle sides

Scratch-made mac and cheese, pit beans, crisp slaw, and warm cornbread.

Our story

Hessler's BBQ began in our backyard with a well-worn pit smoker and a fierce dedication to old-school barbecue traditions. As an independent, family-owned business based in Lowell, Michigan, we take pride in serving meals made with genuine craftsmanship and community warmth that the giant chains simply cannot match.

Catering for your special gatherings

From intimate backyard celebrations and graduation parties to corporate events and weddings across Michigan, we bring our mobile pit and friendly service directly to your venue.

"The brisket was the best we've ever tasted outside of Texas. Hessler's catered our graduation party and everyone talked about the food for weeks."

Marcus Bradley
