MEET JOE

Joe Solomon is the heart, hands, and heat behind BBQ BY JOE. What started as a backyard obsession turned into a full-time mission: to serve up real, honest barbecue that brings people together. With a passion for smoke, fire, and flavor, Joe has spent years mastering the craft—learning the science of meat, the patience of the process, and the art of perfecting every plate.

Joe isn’t just a pitmaster—he’s a husband and a proud dad to three wild and wonderful boys who are often found "taste-testing" behind the scenes. With the support of his wife and family, BBQ BY JOE has grown from a weekend pop-up to one of Utah’s most beloved food trailers. For Joe, it’s not just about the food—it’s about feeding the community, supporting local farmers, and building something meaningful with his own hands.
