The grillmasters at Dixie Outpost slow-cook slabs of pork on-site to star on their menu of reinvented southern classics. Carnivores can tear into the original Dixie Pig sandwich, which comes in three sizes and tests jaw flexibility with heaping mounds of hickory-smoked pulled pork piled with coleslaw and mild barbecue sauce ($4.59–$6.99). Chefs wrangle chicken-breast strips into breading and one of nine sauces, including teriyaki or hot buffalo, to create chicken feathers ($3.99+) that, like deep-fried love letters, are tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. Guests can devour customized smoked or deep-fried hot dogs crowned with more than 30 toppings including honey, chopped garlic, and pulled pork, or they can try one of 17 pre-designed dogs ($1.39–$3.59) on the patio or in the Swine Diner BBQ Bus with a refreshing glass of sweet tea ($1.49–$3.99).

Guests feeding a multitude of hungry mouths can opt for catering selection such as trays of deconstructed 4-ounce Dixie Pig sandwiches for partygoers to assemble, as well as heaping portions of home-style sides such as barbecue beans and potato salad. Pork by the pound silences roaring tummies ($9.99+/lb.), and Southern feasts conclude with a rousing speech given by slices of dump cake. Catering packages include sandwiches with one side ($5.75–$6.00/person), two sides ($7.25–$7.50/person), or two sides and dessert ($8.75–$9.00/person). Pricing reflects pick-up only, with delivery, setup, and diamond-studded robot butlers subject to additional charges.
