Our story

It started with seconds

Just before COVID, we decided to take our home cooking to the next level. Friends and family kept raving about our barbecue and asking when we'd cook again, so we leaned in. One backyard smoker turned into bigger cookers, a direct-fire grill and eventually a full-size pizza oven.

Barbecue and hot dogs go hand in hand, and ours start with a family recipe. Craig's dad passed down his Cincinnati-style chili: all meat, no beans, with a Midwest flavor that's hard to find out here. Jamie fell in love with it, and we knew it belonged on a chili dog. Watch for pop-ups where we sell it by the pint and quart.

For now, we're cooking for friends, family and neighbors in Vista de Montaña and Blue Horizons. We love this community, and the goal is simple: as many smiles and full bellies as we can serve here in Buckeye.

Everything is smoked the long way. No shortcuts, no liquid smoke.

Made in small batches

We cook for set dinner nights so what you get came off the smoker that day.
