blended with chopped brisket, bell pepper and
jalapeño. Brisket sandwiches are also on the menu.
He says the field owned by Pro Rental is the perfect
spot for bringing the family to enjoy a communitystyle
gathering with picnic tables and yard games.
“Bob at Pro Rental also owns Big Island Tents. He
was excited to see something fun happening on
the lot and allowed me to come onboard. It’s now
a big community gathering spot with a canopy tent
and picnic tables.”
The BBQ pursuit is a hobby for Noah, a private
chef who provides catering services via his
business, Puako Provisions. For high-end BBQ
dinners, he transports his trailer and smoker to
Anna Ranch once a month, hosting up to 25 guests
inside the vintage barn on the property.
“We’ve done three dinners at the ranch so far,”
he said. “The barn is so cool and brings the old
Waimea feel to the dinners. We are deciding our
dates for the new year.”
