A Possible New Venture

You should move to Florida and get together with HRK you guys would have a blast cooking on the BBQ

Just don't move to Cal. They have way to many restrictions and wouldn't surprise me if you have to put a catalytic converter on the BBQ.

JB some info here , My son-in-law has been in BBQ all his life ,& he & his Dad finally got around to opening A BBQ place , There very well know around here , even won the taste test & contract to cater the OCC bunch at NASA when they Built the NASA Bike , But It's been hard since the economy Sucks right now , even after going around & checking on the compation ,& trying there BBQ & sides , pricing ,& set up They also have a few hundred trophies from BBQ cook offs mostly first place for the season , Just saying watch your self & good luck

It can happen, you'd want good backing and funding, DIY is very expensive
and you need cash to get through the start up period.

This guy was doing smoking for friends and for church gatherings
and to help people that needed food, his brisket is to die for, I even thought
about applying as an apprentice to learn how they do it...

Finally decided to take the plunge, several years later with proper
financial backing they have several store and are opening other.

the big issue with BBQ is the regionality of the type of BBQ and
sauces, from Tomato based, vinegar, and even bama white sauce

then you have the Pork vs beef bbq

Franklin BBQ in austin is another big success...

Food industry is a very competitive business.
We have one here in Oregon called Busters Texas BBQ. Owner, Dave came here from Texas and with his BBQ style, special recipes and his own line of BBQ sauce has done quit well and has 3 locations here now. Greta place.
It can be done but yea better know the restaurant business well.
