BBQ Born from the Heart of Garlic Begonias

A mobile outdoor cooking station with a grill and various utensils, set up on a grassy field with a blue sky and clouds, and a few buildings and vehicles in the background.

What started as a backyard batch of smoked garlic paste, a BBQ sauce 20 years in the making, and a little bit of magic honey... turned into something much bigger.

Grateful Grubs was born from the roots of Garlic Begonias — with love, fire, smoke, and flavor. We took our soul food to local farmers markets, and the people? They couldn’t get enough.

Today, Grateful Grubs serves slow-smoked meats, soulful sides, and homemade sauces — all crafted with the same earthy, hippie passion we bring to everything at Garlic Begonias. Whether we're popping up at a festival or parked outside the shop, it’s always good vibes and great grub.
