Our story
Over 15 years ago Al, with Mary Ann by his side, ditched his daytime cooperate job, put everything they had into the plan and followed his dream of owning his own business and smoking BBQ. In the early years there were bbq competitions, backyard fundraisers, school events and small cooperative events. Those beginnings evolved over the years into thousands of butts being smoke for fundraiser, weekly school events and cooking for groups of several thousand for catering.
In 2003 they opened their restaurant in Acworth with limited hours for carry out only and focused on their catering daily. Over the first 5 years they gradually increased their hours, added a little bit of seating and continued to grow their catering business. In 2008 they decided to open 7 days a week. They remolded the location and added full sit down and became a fast casual restaurant. Business soared and they were well established in the community as a friendly hometown BBQ joint with a loyal following.
Al and Mary Ann’s Daughters Megan and Kelsey grew up working in the family business and in 2015 Kelsey followed her heart into becoming a nurse and Megan continued help grow the family business. In 2016 Megan’s Husband Kohlton was promoted to the store manager and runs the business on a daily basis which allows Al and Mary Ann to focus on the catering side.
