Hey Everyone

Mitch here original owner of RED LINE BBQ. We have gotten our FB page back under our control now and been along time since we had a post.

We hope everyone is doing good and we miss all our awesome customers.

I would like to post this informational post. Im am sure many of yous have heard rumors after rumors after rumors of things since the business was sold. As you all know theres always the truth and then theres what people want you to think. Carolyn and myself and family spent years making Red Line BBQ into what it was when we sold it. Always had awesome relationships w our customers/ Catering Events and Businesses we worked with. And took extreme pride in the food we served. But its a shame that someone can come in and completely change all that and turn our hard work upside-down in a short period of time even tho we provided and taught them w full training. Left them w a notebook of everything and all needed to succeed. Im not here start a blame game or anything like that but I do wanna clear the truth. We have never been paid for the business from them. We personally financed for them on a signed note to help them be successful take over but haven't received a cent from them. I stayed on to help them after they took over for 2 weeks to help w transition but was told they didnt need me when I've reached daily to see if can help especially w catering. The list goes on but it seems to be that we were the ones and are to be blamed for thier operation. How they perform and run thier operation isn't our fault for success or failure. Maybe if people really knew them or heard the real they'd see we aren't to blame. We set them up to succeed w a well known and operating business.

Again im not asking for sympathy but its hard to see and hear the things rumored around about us after we have built and grew a business like we have for a couple of ppl to come in inexperienced and do what they have done and yet blame us.

So please my phones always on my messenger is always open to messages. If you have questions or wanna know the real truth come to the source and ask ill tell ya the real truth not a bunch of made up rumors.

Sorry for mile long post but our family doesn't deserve this from them.

Thank yous all again for the years you e supported us as the owners of Red Line BBQ and always nice to visit when we do run into our awesome customers out and about.
