Absentee-Owner Run BBQ Restaurant — Nearly 40 Years Strong

Description

Here’s your chance to own a beloved, long-standing BBQ restaurant that’s been serving up mouthwatering smoked meats and homestyle sides for nearly four decades. A local institution, this business is known for its authentic flavor—meats are slow-smoked overnight, and all sides are prepared daily using cherished family recipes. Open just 5 days and 40 hours per week, this restaurant runs efficiently under absentee ownership, with long-tenured and reliable staff keeping operations running smoothly. Included in the sale are two top-of-the-line commercial smokers and other essential equipment. The restaurant enjoys favorable lease terms ($13,200/yr) and a long-standing relationship with a supportive landlord.
