We're Gettin' There

We're getting closer to getting our BBQ business off the ground. We've found an undisclosed location in Nixa with not only high traffic but a guaranteed draw to our spot. No one in Nixa is doing concession BBQ vending, so we should have a good opportunity ahead of us.

We've been trying to cut a new door in the back of our trailer, but it won't quit raining. Hopefully we can get a day or two precip free so we can get that done. We've installed everything required by the health people, so passing a final inspection shouldn't be a problem.

The menu and pricing is finalized and after months of creating rubs, we've finally nailed down the flavors for each of the meats we're going to feature. My sausage guy is hard at work (at least I hope he is) on stuffing my hot links into casings. It's weird that you can't give the packing plant your finished, seasoned sausage to stuff, but you can give them the seasonings and they'll do it. I should get the first batch of 25 pounds this Saturday. Any excuse to fire up the pit.


Keep you posted as we get closer.
