Full time on the weekends!

Hal is off today, so he's manning the shop.   I'm at the office, sitting comfortably, out of the rain.   ;D

Wow! I AM impressed. Nice job!

Did you guys have to jump through hoops to get the permits from the State and Local governments?

Keep up the great work!

Thanks!

We spent all winter getting our ducks in a row for the permits and the like..    The Health Department  - surprisingly - was the biggest help.   We're in an industrial park (just barely), so that makes things much easier for us.  No zoning/property issues to deal with.

The road next to us feeds into some very affluent neighborhoods.   Those folks are some of our best customers!   ;)

That's on our t-shirts as well!   


 


We had one guy take offense to that.

KCBS judge.   BBQ 'expert'.   Stood around and lectured us for 20 minutes about 'real' BBQ, 'real' pits, 'real' fuel, etc. etc. etc. 

I turned around to do something, and his wife read my shirt.     She then pointed out how he had ribs cooking in the crock pot at home.

They haven't been back........          :D :D :D
