BBQ Crew Member (Offset Smoker Specialist)

placeRotorua calendar_month 

At Black Label Barbecue, the smoker is the heart of what we do — and we’re looking for a key team member to help keep it burning through our busy summer season! This is an exciting opportunity to showcase your pitmaster skills in front of our guests while being part of an award-winning barbecue crew.

What You’ll Do
  • Run our big offset smoker at the restaurant, keeping the fire strong and the meat perfect.
  • Assist with prep for off-site catering and food truck events.
  • Cook in view of customers — showing off your barbecue craft and engaging with guests who love to see the magic happen.
What We’re Looking For
  • Barbecue experience — especially with offset smokers.
  • Friendly and approachable personality — you’ll be cooking in front of people, so confidence and a bubbly nature go a long way, (you can bring your ego, but have the skills to match!)
  • Team spirit — you’ll be working closely with our pitmaster, head chef, and crew.
  • Flexibility — availability for evenings, weekends, and event shifts.
Benefits of Working With Us
  • Free staff meals during your shifts.
  • Opportunities across multiple areas — smoker, kitchen, catering, and food truck.
  • Training and progression with our award-winning pitmaster.
  • Supportive, fun team culture and competitive pay.

Why You’ll Love It

This isn’t just another kitchen role — it’s a chance to be at the centre of the action. You’ll be a key part of our summer crew, helping deliver world-class barbecue while connecting with customers who are just as passionate about it as we are.

If you’ve got the skills, the energy, and the love for barbecue, we’d love to have you on board.
