People Who Make It Special

Bjorn’s Brew believes its employees are its most valuable asset and that belief shows.

Coffee That Gives Back

Beyond their exceptional drinks, Bjorn’s Brew stands out for its deep commitment to community and compassion.

A Vision Fueled by Partnership

Bjorn’s Brew values the personal connection they’ve found with Canyon View Credit Union and the feeling of being known, understood, and supported by people who care about their success.

From Spark to Flame: The Origin Story 

Cowboy Cauldron Company began with a simple prototype inspired by a piece Mike Bertelsen saw at Mount Vernon. When he built one for himself, his friends insisted he make one for them, too. Then their friends wanted one. And their friends… What started as a side project quickly ignited into something much bigger.

Guided by the philosophy that nothing leaves the shop unless it's perfect for its function and built to last for more than a lifetime, Mike and Sharon Bertelsen created something truly unique, a product that’s equal parts craftsmanship, utility, and art.

More Than a Fire Pit: A Catalyst for Connection

While Cowboy Cauldrons are beautiful, durable, and versatile, their true purpose goes deeper. “We don’t sell a fire pit or grill,” says Mike. “We sell the hosting experience.” In a world driven by screens and smart devices, Cowboy Cauldrons are refreshingly analog designed to foster real conversations, real gatherings, and real memories.

A Global Brand with Utah Roots

Though headquartered in Salt Lake City, Cowboy Cauldrons have made their way across the globe from vineyards and resorts to private estates and royal residences. In fact, the Prince of Dubai owns nine of them! The sun never sets on Cowboy Cauldron’s reach, with customers in the UK, France, Japan, Australia, the Caribbean, and beyond.

Fun Fact: From Policy to Pyres

Before fire pits, Mike’s world was policy. He worked as a staff member in the U.S. Congress and as a lobbyist for the mutual fund industry in Washington, D.C. Quite the career shift but a perfect reminder that the best journeys often begin with a spark of inspiration.

Cook, Gather, Repeat

Whether it’s grilling, simmering soup, or throwing the state’s biggest crawdad boil, Cowboy Cauldrons are as functional as they are iconic. Built for beauty and utility, they serve chefs, hosts, and adventurers alike.
