3 years ago today at Trees Dallas in Dallas TX, the idea of what is now Deathcore BBQ was born with this completely sold out, legendary tour package.
I liked to cook, but knew very little about BBQ and operating a smoker and had never fed this many people at once, but I wanted to do something a little extra for these bands I love so much, so I pitched the idea of feeding them all for free and after getting approval, my good friend Corey at Circle H BBQ gave me not only all the tips, advice, and knowledge to execute it, but even lent me his catering smoker, which I eventually bought and use now, to complete the task.
What was intended to be just a one-off service for these incredible bands evolved into something more than I ever imagined at the time and that’s due to the major hospitality, love, and sincere gratitude of each member of the tour package for giving them a break from the gas station and fast food and having a hot meal prepared just for them while touring the whole country for a month. I knew right then this was something I wanted to continue doing.
Since then we’ve managed to venture out to catering for other genres and some pretty big bands and even some Live Nation shows and plan to continue climbing that ladder, but our heart and passion will ALWAYS be with the Metalcore and Deathcore scene and those that have supported us through this journey. We have so much more planned too!
HUGE shoutout to Bodysnatcher, AngelMaker, Paleface Swiss, and DISTANT for giving us a chance to prove ourselves! We wouldn’t be where we are now if not for y’all! 🤠🖤🤘
