What's Brisket Baddies?

Brisket Baddies is a plant-based BBQ food brand made for festivals, brand activations, private events, and commissioned food truck experiences.

WE WERE BOOTLEGGIN’ BRISKET IN THE DESERT

Brisket Baddies started in 2025 in Coachellas parking lot.

What began as a family-led brisket pop-up quickly became a crowd favorite. People came for the food, loved the flavor, and remembered the name. After taking a step back, we came back with a clearer direction. The love for fo brisket never left. We just found a new way to serve it. So, the baddies went plant based.

We wanted to make food that still felt familiar, flavorful, and satisfying, using ingredients that feel lighter and more thoughtful. Southern food can still have smoke, sauce, sweetness, and comfort without feeling heavy.

This is not about replacing brisket. It's about creating something new with the same flavors people already love.

Our signature brisket is made from king oyster mushrooms, seasoned low and slow, pulled for texture, and covered in homemade cherry chipotle BBQ sauce. It gives you that smoky, tender, sweet-heat bite without using alternative meat.

The menu keeps it simple: mushroom-based brisket sandwiches, cold homemade lemonade, and non-dairy banana puddin’ made with plant based vanilla wafers.

Brisket Baddies is for plant-based folks, curious folks, BBQ people, Southern food lovers, and anybody who wants comfort food with a fresh point of view.

It is for people who still want the smoke, the sauce, the sweetness, and the full plate.
