I'm not sure how many folks read this blog, but in case there's anyone out there who does, we've cleared our final hurdle in securing a location. Not only did we secure a location, we got the green light from the city of Nixa to locate at highways 160 and 14. Whew! It was nip and tuck for a while today, but everything came together at the last minute.
We've finalized our final version of our menu. Our serving trailer is 99.999% complete, I'm picking up charcoal and wood this week and an obscene amount of meat next week from Bichelmeyer's in Kansas City.
We're shooting for December 9th as Opening Day. A Nixa Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting December 21 and who knows what else.
By the way, as an addition to the Smoky Footprints post, here's a shot of my Granddad, Bob Henry tossing me, a little Pitmaster into the air in 1956. Sorry, had I known this would've been on the web 53 years later, I would've dressed better. See what good BBQ does for a smile!

Welcome to Nixa!!! I just came across your blog while looking for something else mentioning Nixa and let me tell you, as one of Nixa's Aldermen and lover of smoked meats, I look forward to your success. :-)
I appreciate your kind words, and by all means, stop by and introduce yourself.
