Odell Craft BBQ

Located in the heart of downtown Redding at 1300 Market Street, Odell Craft BBQ brings the smoky aroma of real‑wood fire to the Northern California scene. Founded in 2017 by the Odell brothers, the mobile caterer specializes in USDA‑prime beef and regionally sourced pork, slow‑smoked over live fire to create melt‑in‑your‑mouth brisket, tender short ribs, and juicy tri‑tip. Guests can step up to the cutting station on Thursday and Friday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., choose their favorite meats, and pair them with signature sides such as honey‑butter rolls, creamy potato salad, and the unexpected banana pudding that has won praise from Southern‑born visitors. The menu also features a pulled‑pork sandwich drenched in a house‑made tangy sauce, and a selection of desserts for a sweet finish. For private events, Odell Craft BBQ offers a hand‑carving station, full set‑up and tear‑down, and custom menus tailored to weddings, corporate gatherings, or backyard parties. The casual, rustic interior showcases reclaimed wood tables, exposed brick, and a large open pit where the fire‑kissed flavors develop. Prices sit in a moderate range, making the experience accessible for families and food‑enthusiasts alike. With a Google rating of 4 out of 5 from over 200 reviews, the crew is known for friendly service, generous portions, and a willingness to let the meat speak for itself—no sauce required. Whether you’re a local craving a weekend feast or a traveler passing through Shasta County, Odell Craft BBQ promises a genuine craft‑barbecue experience you’ll remember long after the smoke clears.
