I've had an ear-to-ear grin since you told me about it, Clint. I'm so happy for you! Hang onto that spritzer bottle for me. Hoping the motorhome holds together long enough to make that Alaskan trip we've been talking about.

What is the planned menu? Are you going to start out slow, or offer a large selection?

Now, if you were able to pull that thing down to Glenallen I would see you daily. Plus, you would make a killing at that intersection.

I can also tell you that Valdez is in serious need of a good BBQ place

I not moving it to Glenallen thats for sure

I'll keep Valdez in the back of my mind for when I franchise out

You need to make it up and spend a little more time then last trip, at least stop by grab a sandwich. BS and have a beer with me.

Slow and Small want to keep it easy and fast. pulled pork, shredded beef, smash burgers(not right off the bat thou), then chips, slaw, beans(working on a good cost effective recipe still) and frys.

Actually, Santa Claus House is just south of North Pole on the AK highway, if I remember my geography correctly from living nearby 30 years ago.
There were no good places to stop between Delta Junction and Fairbanks back then except for the Elf's Den (pizza). In fact, there were no places back then for a quick stop.
Good luck with your new venture. Keep us posted.
