Hot, Customizable Meals for Your Knoxville Studio Set
Whether you’re shooting B-roll on Market Square, filming a commercial along the Tennessee River, or producing a feature inside the old Panasonic building off Middlebrook Pike, Best Food Trucks delivers the fastest, easiest studio catering in Knoxville. Our team has fed crews on everything from HGTV pilots to University of Tennessee promos, so we know how to keep long production days on schedule. We’ll build rotating daily menus that fit your call sheet, pinpoint the best parking spot for service, streamline online ordering and pick-up, verify every vendor’s permits and insurance, and give you a clear cost breakdown that protects your budget.
Need smoky East Tennessee barbecue at dawn? Tap Smoked Pickle Barbecue or Clean Smoke BBQ. Craving a taco spread after a nighttime shoot near the Sunsphere? Dia De Foods has you covered. Looking for craft burgers to keep the art department happy? Hamburger Hill Food Truck is crew-approved. And when the director asks for pasta “ASAP,” Penne For Your Thoughts can roll up with scratch-made Italian favorites. Food truck catering also means less food and packaging waste—perfect for eco-conscious productions filming in the Smokies’ backyard.
Let Best Food Trucks handle mealtime logistics for your Knoxville studio so you can focus on the shot list, not the lunch list.
Supporting Knoxville’s Small Businesses
Every time you bring a food truck onto your Knoxville studio lot, you’re putting money straight into The Maker City’s economy. Most of the rigs that pull up to sets in Bearden, South Knox, and along Magnolia Avenue are owned by solo chefs, husband-and-wife teams, or first-generation families who prep out of shared kitchens in the Old City. Booking them through Best Food Trucks means your catering budget stays local—fueling storefront dreams, farmers-market buys, and UT student payrolls instead of a distant corporate kitchen.
Food trucks also check the “green production” box. Compared with traditional buffet catering, trucks burn less energy, serve in compostable ware, and leave you with fewer trash bags to haul across the Tennessee River to the dump. That lighter footprint matters when you’re filming commercials that feature the Great Smoky Mountains or PSAs about keeping Fort Loudoun Lake clean.
So the next time your production coordinator types “low-budget studio catering Knoxville” or “film set food truck near me” into a search bar, skip the generic drop-offs. Hit up Best Food Trucks instead and get hot, crowd-pleasing meals that make your crew—and the local business community—smile between takes.

This is the best burger truck. Everything we ordered was really fresh. Please keep Smash and Roll on Talavera’s list of trucks.

The fries were cooked well and love the seasoning, I just prefer thinner fries. I also think it would be better if the bun was toasted. Otherwise great meal.

The lo mein was phenomenal, the noodles soaked up the sauce perfectly. I will say though that it was a little too sweet but I'd definitely get it again next time you're here!
