I hope you the best! I'm so glad there will be no ND stuff on the walls! Boiler Up! But wait what goes better with bbq than sports and a cold beverage. How how about BIG 10 memorabilia and just a little ND to keep the locals happy. I'll send you all the PU stuff you want.

Two questions. First, apparently your place is close to ND, I wouldn't place a single item of their on the wall either, but my team Rutgers is joining the B1G soon and I am not familiar with the area up there is it also close to any other schools cause I plan on going to a lot of away games and would love to visit on the trip.
Two, I am new here so I am unsure, did you do any catering first before you moved to the restaurant or just backyard, family get together stuff. Thanks |

As for the catering and stuff, I did a ton of friends and family type stuff, but did some occasional catering as well. I only did really small gigs (usually 40 or less people) since I wanted to keep it something I could handle doing myself and not needing to hire help or invest in more equipment. Well, no shirts being sold quite yet. First run was a small batch just to cover staff needs and to get a few shirts on friends and family to wear around, but I'll be doing a much larger printing once we get open and will have some available then. |

Why didn't you end up going with the Ole Hickory SSM you originally planned to get? Because of the delivery delay you mentioned? After your description of the poor customer service, I'm kinda surprised you went to them.

So, it all came down to a through the wall installation. Again, only one spot in the entire kitchen where this would work. And unfortunately again, none of the Ole Hickory units would fit in that very tight spot due to their dimensions. Yeah, not ideal, but just one of those things that you have to make the best of a situation. And I'll even say it again, Southern Pride's support, or at least the people who pick up the phone when you call them, are about worthless. That hasn't changed. BUT, the distributor they pawned me off to for this region, he is the absolute best. For this part of the country SP is handled by Miller Scales & Food Machines, and I've got to say, Murray Miller the owner, is just outstanding. He's installed dozens of these cookers and will talk your ear off all day about them. He knows everything there is to know, comes out personally to set them up, and even gave me his cell number the first time I got in touch with him. So in the end even if SP's support sucks, having somebody somewhat local who knows these cookers inside and out and will jump through hoops to make sure everything is working right is a great piece of mind. I can live with that. |
