OUR STORY:

Keane’s Wood-Fired Catering (originally named Boru Barbecue and Catering), was founded in 2016 by husband and wife, Padraic and Kaylyn Keane. They have brought together their love of wood-fired barbeque with fermentation and locally sourced products. 

Padraic grew up working in his parents village pub in Galway, Ireland and moved to the United States in 2015. Through some chance work opportunities he became fascinated with traditional southern barbecue and learned his way around a wood-fired smoker. After welding his own smoker at the Steel Yard in Providence, Padraic held his first catered event at Whalers Brewing in South Kingstown in 2016. Since then, Keane’s has continued to build a reputation for exceptional food and service.

Keane’s now offers a growing menu of locally sourced proteins and seasonal sides and a wide range of services, from full service catering with bar and beverage options to express and holiday packages. In 2020 we also opened a popular BBQ take-out service in the Edgewood neighborhood of Cranston.

Keane’s proudly provides a unique wood-fired catering experience, offering some of the best barbecue in the region to clients all over Southern New England. We look forward to serving you and your guests!
