RETIREMENT EQUIPMENT SALE!
With retirement comes the cleaning out of so many things. I’m starting with moving out my smoking/grilling, catering ware, Cambros, kitchenware, and lots of really good stuff; way too much to list here. But if you need or could use something, please ask. I’m only gonna dig it out for serious inquirers. For starters, I have a slightly used Alto Shaam Halo Heat Slow Cook & Hold convection cabinet perfect for brisket or prime rib. And my smokers. Please contact me ONLY by email at: [email protected]. Or by Tex at 302.345.8863. Be friend. Tell a friend!

Ahoy, maties! re: Fat Rick’s 2020 Mystery Fishing Trip - We’re calling everyone to sail the Bay with us, for a few beers, and eatin’ some BBQ. And oh, did I mention some late summer fishin’? We’ll be returning to the Chesapeake for striper fishin’, unless there’s a consensus for the Delaware Bay. Final cost will be determined by time, date, and port of departure. Seats are limited (12 max), so first come, first serve. Every year has been a sell out. So... PM (or text me @ 302.345.8863) as soon as you can. (P.S. - No trumpsters!)

Just added our third mobile wood-fired smoker to our fleet. 1500 lbs of 1/4” plate steel. What a beauty! Nothing like it when you throw in a few cherry logs. Real Classic American BBQ at it’s finest, right here in Delaware. Celebrating 30 years and still, “Nobody Beats My Meat!” Oh, and BTW, if you’d like us to show up in YOUR neighborhood, get a few friends and neighbors together and email me at [email protected]

This weekend we’re paying tribute to an All American BBQ Classic - North Carolina Pulled Pork! It’s the REAL deal, slow smoked over hickory and oak, then served up with our award winning Vinegar-based pork sauce, sweet red sauce.
