Bill Pickett was a Black cowboy, rodeo star, and the man credited with inventing bulldogging. Black cowboys were a big part of the working West, and most of the story books left them out.

At jonesHOMEMADE, his name is on a cookie. Food is one of the ways we keep these stories at the table.

More of the fall menu, and the stories behind it, coming this week.
