Barbecue has a special place in Bill’s heart.
Besides a love for the flavors, Bill Barger derives happiness from cooking, feeding others, and accepting “invitations” to parties where he enjoys the company of people who are enjoying themselves while he cooks.
*Pit master Bill and his experienced staff are food safety certified and uphold a commitment to the best in quality at every event, no matter how large or small.
We Started in 1996
Barbecued Food is Happiness Food
M.R. Pigs Barbecue got its start in 1996, when Bethel Park resident Bill Barger was finally convinced by family and friends to share his pig roasting talents with the public.
Today, he and his staff cater the best in locally sourced closed-pit roasted pig and barbecued meats to customers in the Pittsburgh area and well beyond.


Make Your Event a Success
Relax and Focus on Your Guests
M.R. Pigs is unique because food is cooked on-site, where the sensory delights of roasting aromas, smoke, sizzle, and savory flavors unite to create a one-of-a-kind experience.
M.R. Pigs also is one of the few remaining barbecue caterers in the area that will roast a whole hog at your site.
Everyone Joins In
Delicious Pig Roast Prepared at Your Event
Whether guests want to “sample” how the roast is progressing or just enjoy the end result, Bill welcomes interest in how he prepares and cooks the food at your event.
Pigs are prepared North Carolina style – closed pit split, spread, and mopped with a vinegar pepper sauce that is sealed in with roasting.


Options to Suit Your Guests
