BBQ Take-Out is on Winter Break

We will re-open every Friday starting February 16th. We will be open for orders on Superbowl Sunday February 11th 

We discovered Keane's while looking for a less-traditional vendor to fit our dream of a "tacos and margaritas" theme. Keane's both fit our budget and threw us the wedding of a lifetime, even going out of their way to accommodate a winter holiday wedding. Our guests loved the brisket and raved about the cocktails. Kym helped stay us on top of everything and was very professional. Cannot recommend enough. We kept coming back for Friday night take out to "taste test" and will be back again in the future!

I am a southern boy that grew up on the base of the Appalachia Mountains in the "Dark Corner" of the upstate in SC. (Moved to RI a few years back) I was skeptical to get BBQ catered but let me tell yall..... This is TOP NOTCH BBQ! These folks know how to smoke meats. Well done! Ill be using you guys for all my future events/parties. I tried all the meats and they are all fantastic. The sides are just as good. 20/10 would recommend to a friend! Thanks yall for the food this weekend!

Most successful family BBQ ever and all thanks Padraic at Boru! Had his food for the first time at a catered event 6 months ago and couldn't wait to have his Brisket, Corn Bread, Pickles (frankly everything he makes) for our next family gathering. Padraic was extremely diligent with helping us make the day a super success and taught me how to cut the brisket. Can't wait to hire him again!

We have an equation for our food prep and service based on guest count and do not typically have significant amounts of ready-to-serve leftovers. Part of the full service experience is tear down and removal of all our waste and service equipment and adherence to food safety principles. Due to health and safety regulations and liquor licensing laws we do not leave any leftover food or alcohol at full service events. Keane's utilizes ReMix waste services to divert any food scraps from our prep and services to composting facilities.
