Craftsmanship
It all starts in the butcher shop: in-house production, in-house cutting, in-house maturation.
EMBER is the event catering brand that emerged from the experience of the Trautmann butcher shop.

Since
1961
Origin
Trautmann's butcher shop has been located at Hauptstraße 119 in Mannheim-Feudenheim since 1961. Run as a family business, now in its third generation, it offers over 250 specialties made in-house.
In addition, they have their own dry-aging ripening chamber, game from their own hunting grounds in the Odenwald forest, and a master butcher who is also trained as a meat sommelier — certified by the Augsburg Butchers' Academy.

Why EMBER

The barbecue catering business has grown out of the butcher shop over the years — with over 250 events since 2020 and more than 15,000 guests served. It's no longer a side service, but a craft in its own right: planning, setup, live cooking, and service throughout the entire evening.
A butcher shop sells meat. EMBER organizes evenings. Both belong together — but not under the same name.
Trautmann remains the craftsman.
The experience will be EMBER.

Craftsmanship
01
It all starts in the butcher shop: in-house production, in-house cutting, in-house maturation.

OFYR, smoker and BEEFER are included. Cooking takes place in front of the guests, not behind a wall.

Regional partners, game from our own hunting grounds and the selection of a meat sommelier.
04
From the initial planning stages to the last guest, one team remains responsible.
Two brands
The craftsmanship behind the experience
In-house production, in-house aging, in-house hunting, regional partners, and the selection of a meat sommelier. The shop in Mannheim-Feudenheim remains the starting point.
The experience at your event
Planning, open fire, live cooking, service and cleanup. EMBER brings the kitchen to where the party is — and stays until the last guest.
