Here's what customers are saying about our BBQ Catering & Classes:

"I've been involved in BBQ for several years, both competing and serving as a KCBS certified judge. I've taken many classes over the years, all of which have helped me sharpen my game. When the opportunity came along to take the Greek BBQ class offered by Bill a few years ago came along I jumped at it. In addition to learning about spit-roasted meats, (particularly lamb, which no one else seems to work with), the class members also made fresh sausages from scratch. I learned some new techniques and worked with new ingredients. It was a bonus that Bill also injected his knowledge of Greek food culture, the wine and appetizers (meze) were great too....lots of fun! " - Jim K.

"The best BBQ I have had in a long time!" - Gail W.

"Probably the best BBQ I have ever had. Excellent catering!" - Christina K.

"Everything was perfect and everyone wanted seconds! Definitely a hit and will use again. " - Cheryl M.

"Excellent food, great people to work with! Used Head's Red on many occasions. Never disappointed!!!" - Julianna S.

"Head's Red has BBQ has catered small for 12 people and large over 200 for me. Always professional, polite & the food is fantastic! I work with them every chance I get." - Mandi S.

"His BarBque is always lipsmackin'! It looks as good as it tastes.... Mr. Head puts a lot of care effort in his bbq and sides". - Irene B.

"Bill was an absolute pleasure to work with. Friendly, professional and went over the top to make sure our event was a success. He's so well-versed at this, he knows the questions to ask to ensure a top-notch experience for you and your guests. Can't wait till the next time we do a Pig Roast, he's my first call." - Robb Z.

"Thank you for catering our recent housewarming party for 40 adults. Choosing Head's Red took a lot of stress out of the event. Initial communication with you to set up the event, select the menu and agree pricing was great. On the day of the event you were punctual, efficient and friendly which we appreciated. Most importantly, the pulled pork, brisket and your Head's Red sauce was delicious and we had many compliments from our guests. Thanks again Bill. " - Gina G.

" we were so very happy with the pig roast on Saturday! Everyone raved about the food and enjoyed speaking with you as well. We will definitely keep Heads Red in mind for future parties and have already passed your information on to friends and family. Thank you so very much." - Wallace & Laura P.

"..I am so pleased with how the Spring Fling turned out. Everything was great. Attendees raved about the food. I am still hearing complements and it is over 3 weeks later! Your presence at the event and help directing the food line & serving was essential to make the day flawless.
At the last PTL meeting I posed to the same question to the PTL board & the teachers & principal in attendance. There was no suggestions on improvements, everyone thought the food and service was wonderful.
It was a great success for both Head's Red & the St. Peter PTL.
Thank you for everything.”

"..Hi Bill,
Your pulled pork was delicious. We served 50 survivors and 45 caregivers. On behalf of the lives touched by your support of the Relay... Thank You."

Here's what customers are saying about Head's Red BBQ Sauce:

".. I finally got around to trying your Heads Red sauce yesterday on some pork loin.
VERY good stuff.
I'll be heading down to Coal City Specialty Foods in a few weeks and will definitely pick up some more.
I'm not sure if you've ever tried a sauce out of Cincy based restaurant Montgommery Inn, but your sauce has some flavor notes that start out exactly the same, but then your sauce has nice strong secondary notes that take a good sauce, to a great level.
Congrats!!!
If you ever get into the rub side of the business, let me know.
I'll also drop into Casey's to ensure I can get it locally here.
Just wanted to drop you a quick note, from one Bill to another."

“Bill-
Great job on your BBQ sauce. It is especially good on pork. I’ll have to get over to Little Gourmet to pick up a few bottles. Sorry I missed the demo there last week-I love pulled pork. “

“Hey Bill!
I picked up a couple bottles of your sauce at the Wheaton French Market last month. Thank you for taking the time out to give me some BBQ'ing tips on improving my ribs. I made some the other weekend and they came out great! They were the best Ive ever done. Your sauce was excellent on them as well.”.

Robert G.

Hi Bill..
I  spoke with you at  Casey’s a few weeks ago when you were sampling out that delicious pulled pork with your sauce. I finally tried it at home per your instructions. I used a bit more sauce than you suggested as we really like BBQ sauce in our house, especially yours!  Hope you come back to Casey’s soon with some more of your great BBQ!
How about brisket? hint hint.."

Kathy R.

“Hey Bill….
Just wanted to let you know that I ordered a bottle of Head's Red from Hawgeyes. Lisa and I both really like your sauce. We had it with some pulled pork that we had in the freezer.
 Really like the anchovy and molasses for the deeper background flavors. We will be recommending it for people who ask us for sauce recommendations.”

Head’s Red BBQ Sauce..You could put it on a bumper and it would make it taste good..GREAT sauce.”

“Hi Bill,
 I wanted to let you know I think your sauce is outstanding. I am always trying new BBQ sauces and I haven't found one that stands out. I was at the Bartlett Fresh Market the other day and I happened to catch a glimpse of your sauce and the very visible promotional info card. The first thing that caught my eye was that it was a product from my home town Roselle... so without even thinking I bought it only because I want to support my hometown folks. Then we tried it later that week and thought it was fantastic. I will be stocking up on your sauce! We've had 2 slabs of ribs sitting in our freezer forever because we can't find a sauce to use on them (I'm very picky)...”

Lisa in Bartlett

"Hi Bill
It was great meeting you at your recent demo at Caputos'. Thanks again for taking the mystery out of using my new Weber smoker. I did my first overnight cook this past weekend using your lighting instructions and the fire burned all night just as you said it would. I only had to tweak the vents once. My family was just blown away by the pork butts! Thanks again for the friendly advice. I need to cook some more now so I can try out the pork injection you got on your recipe page. “

James P.

Hello Bill!
I met you at Casey’s on a Sunday  in Naperville about a month ago. Tried your Heads Red BBQ. Just wanted you to know that my family digs your bbq sauce. We go thru a couple of bottles a week. Just wanted you to know your efforts working at Casey’s on a Sunday paid off! Best of luck in the future.”

Richard K.

"Bill:
Grabbed some of your BBQ sauce and its been a big hit. Great stuff! I'm cooking for 50 people on Sunday for my annual Prog-B-Que. I'll make sure the sauce is front and center.
Cooking 2 briskets, 2 boston butts, whole salmon, about 20 pounds of sausage. Lots of sides and desserts. The Fast Eddy and Primo will be quite busy...
Let me know if you come out with any more products.”

"Bill,
I just bought a bottle of your sweet and tangy sauce from Heritage Farmers Market in Pekin. Wow! Incredible! I love how different it is from normal, store bought sauce.
I'm a huge fan of BBQ and have been told I should start my own restraunt with how I've been doing my own recipes on the smoker.
I'll be proud to add your sauce to my my BBQ creations. Thanks for making an excellent and unique product for sale."

Terry R.

"Bill,
I received the sauce today, I can't tell you how much I appreciate this. You have a lifetime customer, and my family and friends love your sauce!
Thanks for everything!"
