Job Description

In 1930, Leroy “Van” Vandergrift opened the doors of Van’s Pig Stand with a vision that was as straightforward as it was lasting: serve hickory-smoked barbecue made with care, and treat every guest like family. Nearly a century later, Van’s Pig Stand is proud to be Oklahoma’s oldest barbecue restaurant, still built on that foundation of quality food, hospitality, and community. When you join our team, you’re helping carry forward a tradition that has been serving neighbors and friends for generations.

What We’re Looking For
We are seeking enthusiastic and dependable Crew Members to join our team. At Van’s, the word “Crew” includes many important roles, whether you’re working the register, greeting guests at the counter, preparing food in the kitchen, or supporting behind the scenes, you are an essential part of the Van’s experience. Every position works together to create the welcoming, high-quality atmosphere that has defined us for nearly a century.

Responsibilities may include:

• Greeting guests with a smile and positive attitude.
• Handling orders accurately at the counter, register, or over the phone.
• Preparing and serving food with care and consistency.
• Supporting fellow team members to ensure smooth and efficient operations.
• Maintaining cleanliness, safety, and quality standards.
• Stepping into different roles as needed to support the team.

What We’re Looking For in You:

• A team-first mindset and willingness to help wherever needed.
• Strong communication and customer service skills.
• Dependability, accuracy, and a strong work ethic.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment.
• Previous restaurant experience is welcome, but not required, we’re happy to train the right people.

Why Work for Van’s Pig Stand?
At Van’s Pig Stand, you’re not just working at a restaurant—you’re joining a family with nearly a century of tradition. We value teamwork, leadership, and a passion for great food and service. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to grow, make an impact on your team, and be part of an Oklahoma institution that has been serving the community since 1930.

We also believe that taking care of our people is just as important as taking care of our guests. That’s why we strive to create a healthy work-life balance, offer insurance options, and provide paid vacation time, so you can build a career you’re proud of while enjoying life outside of work.
