About Vandervate BBQ
John Vandervate
Established in 2017, John started Vandervate BBQ as a passion project from his love of Texas style BBQ. He is always improving his craft through learning and experimenting with new flavors. He caters events across Washington state and plans to eventually offer his services in Arizona.
Sparky
Owner John Vandervate spent his career in construction management and is an incredibly talented craftsman. Leave it to him to see a 1K gallon propane tank and have a vision of making this the body of of his central Texas style offset smoker. He lovingly refers to this creation as "Sparky", which combines his love for BBQ and the ASU Sun Devils.
Valhalla
In 2022 Vandervate BBQ introduced the newest smoker, Valhalla. This beauty holds two 1000 gallon central Texas offset smokers built into a trailer. The smokers are lovingly named Thor and Odin. It has a capacity of 48 briskets, almost a 1/2 ton of beef! Valhalla is the name given to Viking heaven or "Hall of the Slain".
