Mean Moe’s BBQ is fully committed to spreading the good word and great tastes of all things BBQ.

I like to say Mean Moe’s BBQ is a hobby that went wrong…Yet we love every minute of it.

Now Let's Talk BBQ...

About Us

Mike Magill, is the owner and Pit Master of Mean Moe’s BBQ.  

Mike’s had the passion for cooking his whole life. Being in the kitchen or at the BBQ pit or wondering through the grocery store looking for the next great idea has always been a kind of stress relief for him. His first job as a teenager was a flipping burger’s at Harvey’s. BBQ’ing really became a passion for Mike while living in Leesburg Virginia. After a couple years of winning trophies in friendly neighbourhood BBQ competitions, Mike decided it was time to take the next step. In 2015 Mike enrolled in a professional BBQ school (Jacks' OId South) run by 4-time BBQ World Champion Myron Mixon in Unadilla Georgia.

Neighbour and long-time friend Nick O’Donnell joined the Mean Moe’s BBQ Competition team in 2016 and they never looked back. Since then Mike has trained under several other BBQ legends like Tuffy Stone, Tim Scheer and Brad Leighninger.

At every professional Kansas City Barbeque Competition (KCBS) event, each team must compete in 4 categories: Chicken, Ribs, Pork and Brisket.

We finished our 1st competition with 4th place chicken, 1st place Brisket for a 4th place overall. That was all the validation we needed. Mean Moe’s BBQ is now a Top Canadian professional BBQ team that travels across Canada and the United States competing in KCBS sanctioned BBQ competitions.  

We have won dozens of KCBS Top 10 trophies in each category 

Multiple 1st place awards for
Chicken, Ribs, Pork and Brisket.

We used Mean Moe's BBQ for multiple corporate summer events in Waterloo, Oakville, and Muskoka. The food was always incredible, and the attendees always raved. They were easy to work with, and we'd highly recommend them for any events you're hosting.

"Mean Moe's BBQ made our Starport Main event a unique and memorable dinner. The interaction with the staff and our members explaining the entire BBQ process was unique and personal. The pulled chicken and smoked brisket were mouthwatering. The sides of beans, mac n cheese and cornbread were the perfect accompaniment. It was a power team of two and are guests were more than satisfied.”

Mean Moe’s have amazing rubs for all of your BBQ needs! The Bad Ass rub is a favorite for me on Chicken and the Badass Pork rub is awesome for chops and ribs! I highly recommend them

Stephen McIntyre

We've had Mean Moe's BBQ a few times for our work functions. Food is fantastic and servings are generous.
Mike and his team are fantastic.
They are self sufficient when they arrive onsite for setting up/layout and clean up.

If you want great food, great pricing and people for your work function or just any gathering, you gotta go Mean Moe's!!!!

Our Stroud Curling club recently hosted a “Bourbon Tasting” event and we had Mean Moe’s provide the food pairings. Well it was spectacular and so very delicious. We provided the nosing and tasting notes of each of the 4 bourbons and they expertly paired the food to each one. All you could hear around the room was OMG this is fabulous, is there more. Everyone was licking their fingers and maybe even a few plates. Lol. Mike and Nick are so professional and are very particular about the food they serve. The presentation is top notch too.
You won’t be disappointed with their food. It’s beyond good! Thanks guys you made our event an absolute hit. See at our next one!
