OUR STORY
HOW IT ALL BEGAN

Skip Steele opened his first restaurant in Jonesboro, Arkansas in 1980 – he was only 20 years old. Steele joined a Shipping Company and had the opportunity to travel the world learning the different approaches to barbecue. He took that knowledge to the competition level and began competing against other Pitmasters in whole hog, ribs and pork shoulder. Steele has continued to compete, participate in food festivals, and has opened restaurants internationally as well as across the United States.

Along the way, Skip’s daughter Hannah Steele joined her father. Now, the father daughter duo, along with their incredible team work hard to bring award-winning BBQ to Northeast Arkansas.
