(9)

DAMO BBQ is Danny and Maggie Orlando and we grew up across the street from each other in Villa Park, IL. Danny has been a Carpenter for over 2+ decades and I have a Full time job and a bachelor’s degree in science, Psychology. No, we don’t have food backgrounds, but both of us come from BIG families. Danny is the baby of 6 and I am the baby of 8; that means we know how to appease to the masses. Th

is is what grew our interest in exploring a food business. Danny learned to cook from his Italian father, Bob, and has taken a passion for cooking with his own spin. He has been cooking for over 20+ years for family and friends. We believe our food has our heart in it and are ready to serve it to you! Come visit us at one of our Pop Up Events or hire us to serve your special occasion. Once you have DAMO meat in your mouth, you will be sure to get with the slogan, “DAM-O that’s good. Can’t go wrong with DAMO meat in your mouth!” 😂Follow us on FB or IG for details.

Happy Birthday, JEFF! 🎉
Hey BBQ lovers! It’s a special day here at DAMO BBQ as we celebrate the birthday of our OG smoker, JEFF! 🎂🔥
A Journey Worth Celebrating
Three years ago, Danny and I embarked on this delicious journey with a dream and a custom pit named JEFF. After cooking holiday dinners for our neighbors, we knew we wanted to share our passion for BBQ with everyone. So, we reached out to a welder, and soon after, we drove down to Kentucky to pick up JEFF, our very first custom pit. It was love at first sight, and naming him after our pit builder just felt right, funny story. 😉
The Evolution of JEFF
Since then, JEFF has been with us every step of the way, from our humble beginnings in pop-ups to catering weddings and corporate events. With the help of a local welder , JEFF received some nifty customizations to elevate his smoking prowess, making him an integral part of our BBQ family.🔥

Share your favorite JEFF moments or birthday wishes in the comments below! Who knows, maybe you’ll get a special shoutout! 👇
Thank you for being part of our journey and helping us grow from a small pop-up to having our own boutique location. We couldn’t have done it without our amazing community and, of course, JEFF.
Follow us for more exciting updates and delicious BBQ moments. Here’s to many more years of smoky goodness! opening date soon!🥂
