About Us

The beginning of our journey goes back 7 years while we were having a family BBQ in the backyard. David had smoked a pork butt and cooked up some of his haus BBQ sauce to compliment the pulled pork. Very tasty, so we cooked up the idea that this is something that would go over in New England. The next family BBQ he did one of his slow-cooked briskets.

That solidified the idea that we could open a restaurant and make it work.

David is a veteran and had gained experience while stationed in Virginia, although he will admit that the collard green recipe was borrowed from his mother-in-law. The next several years consisted of planning and some experimentation with the in haus made rubs and sauces to perfect the recipes and processes. For the last several years we spent our time looking for a location that would work until we found the perfect location in Amherst.

David is a resident of Amherst which made this location ideal since being pit master at a BBQ restaurant has demanding hours. The father and son duo started swinging hammers and driving nails the day after Christmas in 2017 and 5 months later after doing many of the remodeling projects together with the help of some friends and family we created a laid-back BBQ atmosphere where we wanted everyone to feel comfortable and welcome.

We pride ourselves on the fact that everything is made fresh daily and the meats are sliced or pulled at the time of ordering making them tender and juicy. Our traditional style BBQ is slow cooked to perfection and served with scratch made sides.
