What do customers say?

Across more than a hundred catering events, CDL BBQ has earned a near-perfect 5-star rating by delivering meat cooked to order-standout tenderness, paired with elegant plating that raises corporate lunches above the ordinary. Staff like Carlos, Felipe, and Thiago appear by name in praise for orchestrating events flawlessly, from 40-person team lunches to 90-person celebrations, yet one reviewer noted a driver's unsafe road behavior, a rare crack in an otherwise spotless record.

The business operates across Orlando with both catering and food-truck services, drawing particular respect for Brazilian barbecue expertise and thoughtful touches (guava jam pairing, fresh sides). Reviewers consistently call out the level of care in setup, breakdown, and guest interaction as the real differentiator.

Bubbalou's Bodacious Bar-B-Que

Most visits yield generous plates of properly smoked ribs and sides at a fair price, with staff that remember regulars. Some recent orders arrive poorly executed: brisket pale and steamed rather than smoked, ribs dry, and sides undercooked or mass-produced. The place trades on decades of reputation, though quality swings noticeably.

Jerkman BBQ delivers punchy Caribbean flavors, especially jerk chicken, at budget-friendly prices, and staff are often warm and attentive. The trade-off: no dine-in comfort (it's grab-and-go), the dining room gets uncomfortably hot, and service quality swings between locations. Those ordering ribs sometimes find them sold out.
