Big Mama's Kitchen & Catering

About

Approaching a half-century ago, Big Mama's Kitchen &
Catering (BMK) was launched as a part-time catering service
offering biscuits, cakes, and other soul food-inspired
classics. Operating out of Patricia "Big Mama" Barron's home
kitchen, the family-run business was hyperlocal, heavily
reliant upon word-of-mouth, and limited in its output and
capacity.
Since these humble beginnings, BMK has become an
Omaha staple, and a must-see stop for foodies across the
country, serving soul food that aims to nourish the body
while strengthening the community.

Our catering service began over 40 years ago as a part-time home-based business in the kitchen of founder; Patricia "Big Mama" Barron. Acquiring her desire to cook for her beloved grandmother Lillie, Big Mama always wanted to own her on restaurant and in December of 2007 at the age of 62, she opened the doors of her first restaurant, "Big Mama's Kitchen & Catering" uniquely located in the cafeteria of an old school formally know as the Nebraska School for the Deaf.

In March of 2018 at the age of 76, Big Mama was called home to be with Jesus. Her legacy of good food, community and second chances will not be forgotten as her family is committed to growing and expanding the rich heritage, she created for us with the relocation of the original restaurant to the Highlander Neighborhood in January of 2020.
