FS035: Catering for a Crowd – with Josh of The Pizza Wagon

What does it take to cater to hundreds of hungry pizza lovers at one time? No one knows better than  Joshua Goldstein, head chef and owner of The Pizza Wagon.

Josh’s trailer serves up delicious pizzas to the Pennsylvania area, all cooked inside a wood-burning brick oven. The Pizza Wagon doesn’t follow the traditional food truck route, however—it’s a catering business specifically designed to feed large groups.

In this episode, Josh shares how he feeds a crowd and keeps his brick oven running like clockwork. He’ll reveal the benefits of catering over serving from the street and the unique challenges of maintaining a mobile pizzeria.

If you’re curious what the catering route can do for you and your food truck, listen in!
