The Crafted Wood Fired Wagon: A Different Kind of Catering Experience
Not every event needs a full plated dinner, but every event deserves good food and a great experience. That’s where the Crafted Wood Fired Wagon comes in.
The Wood Fired Wagon is a mobile catering concept from Crafted Catering and Events, designed for gatherings that call for live cooking, relaxed service, and food that feels interactive and fun. It’s a different pace than traditional catering, but it carries the same care, quality, and attention to detail Crafted is known for.
What Is the Wood Fired Wagon?
The Crafted Wood Fired Wagon is a fully mobile, wood fired cooking setup that allows our team to prepare food on site for your guests. Instead of food arriving pre-plated or finished off-site, guests can see and smell the cooking as it happens.
This style of catering works especially well for events that want a casual, social feel without sacrificing flavor or professionalism.
When the Wood Fired Wagon Is the Right Fit
The Wood Fired Wagon is ideal for private parties, corporate gatherings, festivals, and outdoor celebrations. It’s a great option for clients who want flexibility, shorter service windows, or a more laid-back atmosphere.
Because food is cooked live, menus are designed to move efficiently while still delivering bold, satisfying flavors. It’s not about rushing guests. It’s about creating energy around the food.
What Makes It Different from Traditional Catering
Traditional full-service catering is built around timing, structure, and multi-course service. The Wood Fired Wagon is built around flow and interaction.
Guests are free to move, mingle, and enjoy food as it’s served. There’s no formal seating required and no pressure to follow a strict timeline. That flexibility is what makes the wagon such a popular option for daytime events, company gatherings, and celebrations that want to feel effortless.
The Crafted Approach, Still at the Core
Even though the service style is different, the philosophy stays the same. Menus are thoughtfully developed, ingredients are chosen with intention, and the team running the wagon is experienced, organized, and professional.
The Wood Fired Wagon is not a shortcut. It’s simply another way Crafted shows up for events that need something a little less formal and a lot more fun.
Wood Fired Catering for Corporate Events and Private Parties
For businesses, the Wood Fired Wagon offers a turnkey solution for employee appreciation events, open houses, and client gatherings. Setup is streamlined, service is efficient, and the experience feels memorable without being overproduced.
For private hosts, it’s a way to offer something unique without managing multiple vendors or complicated logistics.
How the Wagon Fits into the Bigger Picture
Some clients work with Crafted for both full-service catering and the Wood Fired Wagon depending on the event. Weddings might call for plated service, while rehearsal dinners, welcome parties, or corporate events are perfect for the wagon.
Having both options allows clients to choose what fits the moment instead of forcing every event into the same format.
